Acid-suppressing Drugs Pregnancy Asthma Offspring Study

April 3, 2015 updated by: AstraZeneca

A Cohort Study on the Association Between Acid-suppressing Drugs in Pregnancy and Asthma in the Offspring

The purpose of this study is

  1. To estimate the association between prenatal exposure to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and the risk of asthma during childhood.
  2. To estimate the association between prenatal exposure to H2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs) and the risk of asthma during childhood.
