Objective. Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used and frequently lead to serious adverse events. Little is known about NSAID-related ethnic/racial disparities. We focused on differences in patient NSAID risk awareness, patient-doctor NSAID risk communication, and NSAID risk-avoidance behavior.Methods. We performed a cross-sectional analysis of survey data from the Alabama NSAID Patient Safety Study. Eligible patients were ::165 years old and currently taking prescription NSAIDs (Rx NSAIDS). Generalized linear latent and mixed models accounted for nesting of patients within physicians.Results. Of all 404 participants, 32% were African American and 73% were female. The mean +/- SD age was 72.8 +/- 7.5 years, and 64% reported an annual household income
