Furosemide and Left ventricular hypertrophy - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Left ventricular hypertrophy is reported as a side effect among people who take Furosemide (furosemide), especially for people who are male, 60+ old, have been taking the drug for < 1 month also take Aspirin, and have High blood cholesterol.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Left ventricular hypertrophy when taking Furosemide. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 313,719 people who have side effects when taking Furosemide from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
