How do epidemiologists study the safety of NSAIDs?

Epidemiologists employ various study designs to assess the safety of NSAIDs:
1. Cohort Studies: These studies follow a group of people over time to observe the incidence of adverse effects.
2. Case-Control Studies: These studies compare individuals who experience adverse effects with those who do not, to identify potential risk factors.
3. Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs): While not always feasible for long-term outcomes, RCTs provide high-quality evidence on the efficacy and safety of NSAIDs.
