Summary:

Hypothyroidism is reported as a side effect among people who take Ammonium lactate (ammonium lactate), especially for people who are female, 40-49 old, have been taking the drug for < 1 month also take Triamcinolone, and have Cataplexy.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Hypothyroidism when taking Ammonium lactate. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 2,138 people who have side effects when taking Ammonium lactate from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
