Abstract

US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event (AE) Reporting System (FAERS) is a major source of data for monitoring drug safety. However, there is not general procedure to systematically compare drugs group. We present a statistical method, which can effectively identify significant differences in AE rates among drugs and estimates the differences in age and gender distributions.
