All VAERS reports use symptoms from the
MedDRA symptom classification system.
The MedDRA is organized at five levels of detail:
System Organ Class
High-Level Group Terms
High-Level Terms
Preferred Terms
Lower Level Terms
Although the full MedDRA is proprietary information, a partial listing is shown here
which includes only those terms that are found in VAERS reports.
Note that the full MedDRA has
70,177 LLT symptoms, but VAERS uses only
8,507 (12%).
You can search this MedDRA hierarchy by typing one or more words here and clicking 'Find'.
It will show a new window with those symptoms that match all of the words.
