Cox proportional hazards regression models with stabilized inverse probability of treatment weighting (weighted hazard ratio [wHR]) and a robust sandwich estimator were used to estimate the relative risk of NSAID exposure in pregnancy, adjusted for newborn characteristics.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results<\/jats:title>This study included 163\u202f516 singleton-born children (24.0%) whose mothers (mean [SD] age at birth of child, 31.25 [4.92] years) used at least 1 dispensing of an NSAID during pregnancy. Gestational NSAID exposure was significantly associated with a higher risk of childhood CKD (wHR, 1.10; 95% CI, 1.05-1.15). No association was observed between NSAID use and fetal nephrotoxicity in sibling comparisons. Elevated risks were revealed for exposure during the second trimester (wHR, 1.19; 95% CI,\u20091.11-1.28) and the third trimester (wHR, 1.12; 95% CI, 1.03-1.22) in singleton-born children. Specific NSAID exposures associated with higher CKD risk included indomethacin (wHR, 1.69; 95% CI, 1.10-2.60) and ketorolac (wHR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.01-1.62) in the first trimester, diclofenac (wHR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.13-1.42) and mefenamic acid (wHR, 1.29; 95% CI, 1.15-1.46) in the second trimester, and ibuprofen (wHR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.07-1.68) in the third trimester.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusions and Relevance<\/jats:title>In this study, gestational exposure to NSAIDs was not associated with a substantial increase in the risk of childhood CKD when comparing between siblings. However, the findings underscore the need for caution when prescribing NSAIDs during pregnancy, particularly indomethacin and ketorolac in the first trimester, mefenamic acid and diclofenac in the second trimester, and ibuprofen in the third trimester, to ensure the safety of the offspring\u2019s
