References: side effects and your quality of life

More than 400 references were used in preparing the information in this i-Base guide including at least 50 new references since the previous update.

Side effects and and your quality of life

Whenever possible, we used publications that are accessible free as open access online. Where this was not possible, we include links to the study abstract. Many publications provide free access to full text articles after 1–2 years of the publication date.

This is not a comprehensive list of sources and it will be updated as new studies are published. Some references have short notes on the specific reason we have included them. Many of these articles include 20-40 references of their own. These are a good pointer for further information.
