Interactions between your drugs
cycloSERINE cholera vaccine, live
Applies to: Seromycin (cycloserine) and Vaxchora (cholera vaccine, live)
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: The use of live, attenuated cholera vaccine with systemic antibiotics may result in a diminished immunologic response to the vaccine. Some antibiotics may be active against the vaccine strain of Vibrio cholerae, thereby preventing a sufficient degree of multiplication to occur in order to induce a protective immune response.
MANAGEMENT: Live, attenuated cholera vaccine should not be administered during or for at least 14 days after treatment with systemic antibiotics.
