A case-control study was performed to determine whether aspirin confers a similar risk of bleeding from gastric or duodenal ulcers in the elderly as nonaspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The intake of analgesics in 230 patients with bleeding ulcers aged 60 and over and in hospital and community controls matched for age and sex was examined. Those who had taken aspirin were between two and three times more likely to be admitted to hospital with bleeding ulcers. This increased risk was not accounted for by aspirin takes for indigestion or by concurrent use of non-aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. A similar effect was not seen for paracetamol.
