Ritonavir and Cardiotoxicity - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data

Summary:

Cardiotoxicity is reported as a side effect among people who take Ritonavir (ritonavir), especially for people who are female, 60+ old, have been taking the drug for 6 - 12 months also take Pantoprazole, and have Hiv infection.

The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Cardiotoxicity when taking Ritonavir. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 13,026 people who have side effects when taking Ritonavir from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
