How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on emtricitabine and atazanavir sulfate (the active ingredients of Emtricitabine and Reyataz, respectively), and Emtricitabine and Reyataz (the brand names). Other drugs that have the same active ingredients (e.g. generic drugs) are not considered. Dosage of drugs is not considered in the study.
