Résumé

Aminoglycosides are nephrotoxic and ototoxic, and combining them with a cephalosporin has been associated with additional kidney injury in some reports. Cefepime itself carries little direct nephrotoxicity, so the added risk is modest and mainly relevant in patients with existing renal impairment or prolonged therapy.

Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples

Cefepime and Streptomycin can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.

Cefepime belongs to Anti Bacterial; Streptomycin belongs to Anti Bacterial.

Niveau de preuve: Low

Pourquoi elle survient

Additive renal tubular stress; the aminoglycoside accumulates in proximal tubular and inner ear cells and any reduction in renal function raises its exposure.

Conduite à tenir

Monitor serum creatinine and streptomycin concentrations, and adjust the dose to renal function. Watch for hearing or vestibular symptoms and limit the duration of combined therapy.
