Clinical Trial Adverse Drug Reactions<br />
Because clinical trials are conducted under very specific conditions the adverse reaction rates<br />
observed in the clinical trials may not reflect the rates observed in practice and should not be<br />
compared to the rates in the clinical trials of another drug. Adverse drug reaction information<br />
from clinical trials is useful for identifying drug-related adverse events and for approximating<br />
rates.<br />
