6.1 Clinical Study Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trial of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
In a 12-month randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled study, a total of 309 postmenopausal women were randomized to receive either placebo or Vagifem 10 mcg tablets. Adverse events with an incidence of =5% in the Vagifem 10 mcg group and greater than those reported in the placebo group are listed in Table 1.

In a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 138 postmenopausal women were randomized to receive either placebo or Vagifem 25 mcg tablets. Adverse events with an incidence of =5% in the Vagifem 25 mcg group and greater than those reported in the placebo group are listed in Table 2.
