Morphine sulfate and Hepatocellular damage - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Hepatocellular damage is reported as a side effect among people who take Morphine sulfate (morphine sulfate), especially for people who are female, 60+ old, have been taking the drug for < 1 month also take Bactrim, and have Atrial fibrillation/flutter.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Hepatocellular damage when taking Morphine sulfate. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 86,091 people who have side effects when taking Morphine sulfate from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
