New drug duo aims to stop deadly rebleeding in liver patients

NCT ID NCT07465471

Summary

This study aims to see if adding a blood pressure medication called midodrine to a standard liver drug (carvedilol) works better than carvedilol alone to prevent a second, dangerous bleeding episode in people with advanced liver cirrhosis. It will enroll 210 patients in India who have just survived a first major bleed. Researchers will follow participants for six weeks to see which group has fewer repeat bleeds.
