Zyprexa and Gentamicin drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Zyprexa (olanzapine) and Gentamicin (gentamicin sulfate). Common drug interactions include hypertension among females and pneumonia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Zyprexa and Gentamicin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 62 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Zyprexa?
Zyprexa has active ingredients of olanzapine. It is often used in bipolar disorder. eHealthMe is studying from 64,724 Zyprexa users. Check the latest studies of Zyprexa.
What is Gentamicin?
Gentamicin has active ingredients of gentamicin sulfate. It is often used in urinary tract infection. eHealthMe is studying from 21,654 Gentamicin users. Check the latest studies of Gentamicin.
