Aromasin and Right ventricular failure - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Right ventricular failure is reported as a side effect among people who take Aromasin (exemestane), especially for people who are female, 50-59 old, have been taking the drug for 6 - 12 months also take Aredia, and have Metastases to bone.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Right ventricular failure when taking Aromasin. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 12,620 people who have side effects when taking Aromasin from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
