Abstract
Previous observational studies have reported an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) among non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drug (NSAID) users compared with non‐users. However, these studies may have been subject to bias due to unmeasured confounders related to patient conditions requiring NSAIDs. We employed an active comparator new user cohort design, using acetaminophen as the active comparator.
