Feasibility of Prioritizing Drug–Drug-Event Associations Found in Electronic Health Records

Conclusions Our proof-of-concept method for scoring putative drug–drug-event associations from EHRs offers a systematic and reproducible way of prioritizing associations for further study. Our findings also quantify the agreement (or lack thereof) among complementary sources of evidence for drug–drug-event associations and highlight the challenges of developing a robust approach for prioritizing signals of these associations.
