NCT04311359

Brief Summary

Literature reports the development of brain oedema following the use of certain drugs. Therefore, this study aims to present a comprehensive disproportionality analysis of brain oedema cases reported to the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).
