NeuroAid II (MLC901) and polypharmacy in stroke and the risk of hepatotoxicity: a case report
Abstract Background NeuroAid II (MLC901) is a promising therapy for stroke patients who present outside of therapeutic window for reperfusion therapy. Studies have proven its efficacy in ischemic stroke; however, data of drug safety and combination with other medications especially anticoagulants ar...
