Abstract Aims Clopidogrel is commonly used even after expiring patents. The brand clopidogrel (BC) was dealt by single company, while numerous manufacturers produce generic clopidogrel (GC). There are no convincing data to compare the safety of different formulations. Therefore, the data yielded from international, uniform, government-mandated registries may be useful. Methods and results We assessed primary causative adverse events (PCAE) after BC and GC in the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). The outcomes were divided into death, cardiac, thrombotic/embolic, haemorrhagic, and rash/dermal complications. These primary endpoints were then examined by proportional reporting ratios (PRR) and chi-square (χ2). Among total FAERS (n = 9 466 679) reports, overall BC (n = 88 863) cases were more common than after GC (n = 36 559). When triaged by PCAE role, BC (n = 18 328) was also more abundant than GC (n = 3987). The reported death rates were more than doubled after BC [18.4% vs. 7.0%; PRR = 0.38; 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.32–0.43; χ2=369.7; P<0.0001] for total FAERS, and consistent for late 2010–2017 (17.6% vs. 7.0% PRR = 0.40; 95% CI 0.37–0.45; χ2=286.2; P<0.004) PCAE cases. In contrast, GC trended to co-report more cardiac (14.6% vs. 13.3%; PRR = 1.12; 95% CI 1.0–1.25; χ2=3.5; P<0.06). The haemorrhagic (40.9% vs. 32.3%; PRR = 1.45; 95% CI 1.33–1.57; χ2=75.8; P<0.0001), and rash/dermal (5.4% vs. 4.6%; PRR = 1.20; 95% CI 1.0–1.44; χ2=3.75; P<0.05) events were also more common for GC. Thrombotic/embolic events were reported equally (at 7.0%) after each formulation. Conclusion The PCAE profiles differ with BC and GC in FAERS. While deaths reports were higher, the rates of cardiac, haemorrhagic, and skin complications were less common for BC. Despite expected reporting bias, this may indicate that the manufacturers of GC are reluctant to report deaths to the FDA. However, the overall adverse event profile suggests potentially better safety of BC over GC formulations.

Abstract Background Sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) reduce the risk of heart failure and new data show they can prevent atrial fibrillation (AF). We examined the association between SGLT2i and AF in the Food and Drug Administration adverse event reporting system (FAERS). Methods We mined the FAERS from 2014q1 to 2019q4 to compare AF reporting for SGLT-2 i versus reports for other glucose lowering medications (ATC10 class). Several exclusions were sequentially applied for: concomitant medications; diabetes, cardiovascular or renal disease indication; reports for competing adverse events (genitourinary tract infections, ketoacidosis, Fournier’s gangrene, amputation). We provide descriptive statistics and calculated proportional reporting ratios (PRR). Results There were 62,098 adverse event reports for SGLT2i and 642,031 reports for other ATC10 drugs. The reporting of AF was significantly lower with SGLT2i than with other ATC10 drugs (4.8 versus 8.7/1000; p < 0.001) with a PRR of 0.55 (0.49–0.62). Results did not change substantially after excluding reports listing insulin (PRR 0.49) or anti-arrhythmics (PRR 0.59) as suspect or concomitant drugs, excluding reports with indications for cardiovascular disease (PRR 0.49) or renal disease (PRR 0.55), and those filed for competing adverse events (PRR 0.63). Results were always statistically significant whether the diabetes indication was specified. Negative and positive controls confirmed internal validity of the database. Conclusions In a large pharmacovigilance database, AF was robustly and consistently reported more frequently for diabetes medications other than SGLT2i. This finding complements available evidence from trials supporting a protective role of SGLT2i against the occurrence of AF.
