Truvada and Gastrointestinal inflammation - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Gastrointestinal inflammation is reported only by a few people who take Truvada.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people take Truvada and have Gastrointestinal inflammation. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 65,519 people who have side effects while taking Truvada from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
Phase IV trials are used to detect adverse drug outcomes and monitor drug effectiveness in the real world. With medical big data and AI algorithms, eHealthMe is running millions of phase IV trials and makes the results available to the public. Our original studies have been referenced on 600+ medical publications including The Lancet, Mayo Clinic Proceedings, and Nature.
65,519 people reported to have side effects when taking Truvada.
Among them, 2 people (0.0%) have Gastrointestinal inflammation.
