What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Patients With an Incidence of Adverse Event (AE) Associated to Potential Liver Damage During the Clinical Evaluation of Patients

    Percentage of patients with an incidence of Adverse Event (AE) associated to potential liver damage during the clinical evaluation of patients.

    Time frame: From the initial dose of study drug until end of the follow up period, up to 113 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Patients With Different Transaminase Levels Found by the Doctor During the Clinical Evaluation of Patients With Symptoms Related to Potential Liver Damage.

    Percentage of patients with different transaminase levels found by the doctor during the clinical evaluation of patients with symptoms related to potential liver damage. No patient with symptoms related to potential liver damage was identified, thus analyses of transaminase levels was not performed.

    Time frame: From the initial dose of study drug until end of the follow up period, up to 113 days

  2. Percentage of Patients With Different Drug Utilization Patterns of Buscapina Compositum N in Patients in Metropolitan Lima

    Percentage of patients with different drug utilization patterns of Buscapina Compositum N in patients in Metropolitan Lima.

    Time frame: From the initial dose of study drug until end of the follow up period, up to 113 days

  3. Percentage of Patients Per Adverse Event Preferred Term in Patients Who Developed Any Adverse Event During Treatment

    Percentage of patients per adverse event preferred term in patients who developed any adverse event during treatment with Buscapina Compositum N.

    Time frame: From the initial dose of study drug until end of the follow up period, up to 113 days

  4. Percentage of Patients With Different Variables Related to the Occurrence of Increase of Transaminases in Patients Under Treatment With Buscapina Compositum N

    Percentage of patients with different variables related to the occurrence of increase of transaminases in patients under treatment with Buscapina Compositum N in Metropolitan Lima. No patient with symptoms related to potential liver damage was identified, thus analyses of transaminase levels was not performed.

    Time frame: From the initial dose of study drug until end of the follow up period, up to 113 days

Limitations and caveats
Since the study is conducted at some health centers, it cannot be generalized to the whole population who uses study drug. It is without a control group, thus not able to compare cumulative incidence of AE with the patients not exposed to this drug
