Vyvanse and Multiple sclerosis - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Multiple sclerosis is found among people who take Vyvanse, especially for people who are female, 40-49 old, have been taking the drug for 1 - 2 years.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people take Vyvanse and have Multiple sclerosis. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 22,723 people who have side effects when taking Vyvanse from the FDA, and is updated regularly. You can use the study as a second opinion to make health care decisions.
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.
22,723 people reported to have side effects when taking Vyvanse.
Among them, 44 people (0.19%) have Multiple sclerosis.
