Vancomycin hcl and Sertraline drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Vancomycin hcl (vancomycin hydrochloride) and Sertraline (sertraline hydrochloride). Common drug interactions include ocular hyperaemia among females and nephropathy toxic among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Vancomycin hcl and Sertraline. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 50 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 vancomycin hydrochloride and sertraline hydrochloride (the active ingredients of Vancomycin hcl and Sertraline, respectively), and Vancomycin hcl and Sertraline (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.
