Fycompa and Multiple-drug resistance - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Multiple-drug resistance is reported as a side effect among people who take Fycompa (perampanel), especially for people who are male, 20-29 old, also take Levetiracetam, and have Seizures.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Multiple-drug resistance when taking Fycompa. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 4,363 people who have side effects when taking Fycompa from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
