Rocephin and Marcaine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Rocephin (ceftriaxone sodium) and Marcaine (bupivacaine hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include swelling among females and hypotension among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Rocephin and Marcaine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 30 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.

How the study uses the data?
The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on ceftriaxone sodium and bupivacaine hydrochloride (the active ingredients of Rocephin and Marcaine, respectively), and Rocephin and Marcaine (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.
How to use the study?
