Abstract
Concomitant nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs) and antithrombotic drug use is associated with an increased risk of bleeding, mainly gastrointestinal. The goal of this study was to quantify the transient increase in the risk of hospitalization for bleeding associated with NSAID use in patients treated with antiplatelet agents or anticoagulants. We performed an unidirectional case-crossover study using the EGB (Échantillon généraliste de bénéficiaires), a permanent random sample of the French nationwide health database. Patients receiving antithrombotic therapy and hospitalized for bleeding between 2009 and 2017 were included. We compared their NSAID exposure during a 15-day hazard window immediately prior to hospital admission to three earlier 15-day control windows. The risk of hospitalization for bleeding associated with the recent use of NSAIDs was estimated using conditional logistic regression to estimate odds ratios. During the study period, 33 patients treated with anticoagulants and 253 treated with antiplatelet agents received NSAIDs and were included in the case-crossover analysis. We found an increased risk of hospitalization for gastrointestinal bleeding after exposure to NSAIDs with an adjusted OR of 3.59 (95%CI, 1.58;8.17) in patients receiving anticoagulant therapy and 1.44 (95%CI, 1.07;1.94) in patients receiving antiplatelet therapy. The risk of non-gastrointestinal bleeding was also increased after exposure to NSAIDs with an adjusted OR of 2.72 (95%CI, 1.23;6.04) in patients exposed to anticoagulant therapy. The risk of gastrointestinal and non-gastrointestinal bleeding increases after NSAID use in patients treated with anticoagulants, while the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding increases, but to a lesser extent in those treated with antiplatelets.

Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs Utilization Patterns and Risk of Adverse Events due to Drug-Drug Interactions among Elderly Patients: A Study from Jordan. Saudi Pharm J 2020; 28:504-508. [PMID: 32273811 PMCID: PMC7132832 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsps.2020.03.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2020] [Accepted: 03/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Worldwide, the prescribing pattern of the Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) has increased. They are considered highly effective medications in controlling various conditions including inflammatory diseases. They are associated with various adverse effects including gastrointestinal bleeding and ulcer and renal toxicity though. These adverse effects are generally potentiated when NSAIDs are co-prescribed with other drugs that share similar adverse effects and toxicities. Developing severe side effects from NSAIDs is more prone among elderly patients. Hence, it is crucial to evaluate prescribing pattern of these agents to prevent/decrease the number of unwanted side effects caused by NSAIDs. Aim The aim of this study is to assess the prescribing pattern of NSAIDs among elderly and the co-prescribing of NSAIDs and different interacting drugs, which could lead to more incidences of NSAIDs-induced toxicities among Jordanian elderly patients. Settings and Methodology A multicenter retrospective study was performed during a three months period in Jordan. The study involves a total number of (n = 5916) elderly patient’s records obtained from Four governmental hospitals in Jordan. Results A total number of (n = 20450) drugs were prescribed and dispensed for patient. NSAIDs drugs prescribing percentage was 10.3% of total medications number. Aspirin was the most commonly prescribed NSAIDs among patients (70.4%), followed by Diclofenac sodium in all dosage forms (25.1%) and oral Ibuprofen (3.1%. In addition, Aspirin was the highest NSAIDs co-prescribed with ACEI (e.g., Enalapril), ARBs (e.g. Candesartan and Losartan), Diuretics (Furosemide, Indapamide, Hydrochlorothiazide, Amiloride, and Spironolactone), Warfarin and antiplatelets (Clopidogreal and Ticagrelor) followed by Diclofenac and other NSAIDs. Conclusion NSAIDs prescribing rate among elderly patients was high. Additionally the co-prescribing of NSAIDs especially Aspirin with other agents, which contributes to NSAIDs nephrotoxicity and gastrointestinal toxicity, were high. Strict measurements and action plans should be taken by prescribers to optimize the medical treatment in elderly through maximizing the benefits and decreasing the unwanted side effects.

Abstract
Few population-based studies have examined bleeding associated with clopidogrel drug-drug interactions (DDIs). We sought to identify precipitant drugs taken concomitantly with clopidogrel (an object drug) that increased serious bleeding rates. We screened 2000-2015 Optum commercial health insurance claims to identify DDI signals. We performed self-controlled case series studies for clopidogrel plus precipitant pairs, examining associations with gastrointestinal bleeding or intracranial hemorrhage. To distinguish native bleeding effects of a precipitant, we reexamined associations using pravastatin as a negative control object drug. Among 431 analyses, 28 clopidogrel plus precipitant pairs were statistically significantly positively associated with serious bleeding. Ratios of rate ratios ranged from 1.13-3.94. Among these pairs, 13 were expected given precipitant drugs alone increased and/or were harbingers of serious bleeding. The remaining 15 pairs constituted new DDI signals, none of which are currently listed in two major DDI knowledge bases.
