Magnesium sulfate and Drug-induced liver injury - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Drug-induced liver injury is reported as a side effect among people who take Magnesium sulfate (magnesium sulfate), especially for people who are female, 30-39 old, have been taking the drug for < 1 month also take Potassium Chloride, and have Anaesthesia.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Drug-induced liver injury when taking Magnesium sulfate. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 17,577 people who have side effects when taking Magnesium sulfate from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
