Irbesartan 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 Irbesartan (irbesartan), especially for people who are female, 60+ old, also take Synthroid, and have Osteoporosis.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Left ventricular hypertrophy when taking Irbesartan. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 35,908 people who have side effects when taking Irbesartan from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
