This is true with a lot of drugs. For example, girls & women who get immunoglobulins infusions for primary immune deficiency diseases have much worse reactions than males do. Severe allergic reactions as well as aseptic meningitis. But for years the complaints & wellbeing of patients who had these reactions were not taken seriously coz males who got the same treatment were doing just fine.
