How the study uses the data?

The study uses data from the FDA. It is based on hydrocortisone butyrate and valacyclovir hydrochloride (the active ingredients of Hydrocortisone butyrate and Valacyclovir, respectively), and Hydrocortisone butyrate and Valacyclovir (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.

How to use the study?
