11/44 (25%) people discontinued treatment because of adverse effects (2 with hip fracture because of fall; 3 because of changes in renal laboratory values; 4 with nausea or distension; 2 died), but the RCT did not report data for each group separately, except to say that 1 person in each group died from causes unrelated to treatment
