Vancomycin hcl and Actrapid drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Vancomycin hcl (vancomycin hydrochloride) and Actrapid (insulin). Common drug interactions include pleural effusion among females and peritonitis among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Vancomycin hcl and Actrapid. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 13 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
