Consumer:

Using acyclovir together with plazomicin may increase the risk of kidney and/or nerve damage. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. You should seek medical attention if you experience signs and symptoms that may suggest kidney damage such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, increased or decreased urination, sudden weight gain or weight loss, fluid retention, swelling, shortness of breath, muscle cramps, tiredness, weakness, dizziness, confusion, and irregular heart rhythm. Be sure to drink plenty of fluids if you develop diarrhea or vomiting during treatment with these medications, as dehydration can also harm the kidney. In addition, let your doctor know if you develop seizures; hearing problems; or numbness, burning or tingling in your hands and feet. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: The concurrent or sequential use of two or more potentially nephrotoxic or neurotoxic drugs may increase the risk of toxicity. Patients who are elderly, debilitated, dehydrated, or who have preexisting renal dysfunction may have a higher risk of developing adverse reactions.

MANAGEMENT: Close clinical and laboratory monitoring of renal and neurologic function and drug serum concentrations (if clinically appropriate) is recommended.
