P355 association of use of gaba agonist prescription with asthma and allergic rhinoconjunctivitis.

We have previously shown that prescription opioid analgesics for chronic pain are associated with increased coding for allergic rhino-conjunctivitis (ARC) and asthma. As GABA agonists are increasingly used for chronic pain and have immunomodulatory effects, we investigated if their use is associated with ARC and asthma.
