6.1 Clinical
Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials 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. There were no clinical trials conducted with DOTTI. DOTTI is bioequivalent to the original formulation of estradiol transdermal system. The following adverse reactions have been reported with the original formulation of estradiol transdermal system therapy: Table 1.
