Sertraline and Acute upper airway obstruction - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Acute upper airway obstruction is reported as a side effect among people who take Sertraline (sertraline hydrochloride), especially for people who are female, 60+ old, have been taking the drug for < 1 month also take Synthroid, and have Rheumatoid arthritis.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Acute upper airway obstruction when taking Sertraline. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 146,463 people who have side effects when taking Sertraline from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
