Vancomycin hydrochloride and Clonidine drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug interactions are reported among people who take Vancomycin hydrochloride (vancomycin hydrochloride) and Clonidine (clonidine). Common drug interactions include white blood cell count increased among females and renal tubular necrosis among males.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Vancomycin hydrochloride and Clonidine. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 65 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 clonidine (the active ingredients of Vancomycin hydrochloride and Clonidine, respectively), and Vancomycin hydrochloride and Clonidine (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.
