Interactions between your drugs
CARBOplatin kanamycin
Applies to: Paraplatin (carboplatin), kanamycin
GENERALLY AVOID: Combining carboplatin and aminoglycosides may increase the risk of nephro- and ototoxicity. The exact mechanism of the interaction is unknown. Both carboplatin and aminoglycosides have been reported to cause renal magnesium wasting.
MANAGEMENT: In patients currently receiving carboplatin therapy, the use of less toxic antimicrobials is preferable. If carboplatin and an aminoglycoside must be used together, renal function, auditory and vestibular function, and serum magnesium should be monitored carefully.
