Micro-k and Neuralgia - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Neuralgia is reported as a side effect among people who take Micro-k (potassium chloride), especially for people who are female, 50-59 old, also take Glucophage, and have Multiple myeloma.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Neuralgia when taking Micro-k. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 1,874 people who have side effects when taking Micro-k from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
What is Micro-k?
Micro-k has active ingredients of potassium chloride. It is often used in hypokalemia. eHealthMe is studying from 1,895 Micro-k users. Check the latest studies of Micro-k.
What is Neuralgia?
Neuralgia (pain in one or more nerves) is found to be associated with 1,389 drugs and 1,789 conditions by eHealthMe. Check the latest studies of Neuralgia.
