Redeemed prescriptions defined exposure to opioids, benzodiazepines, gabapentinoids, and antidepressants. We applied Cox and Poisson regression to estimate fracture risks with and without exposure, adjusting for confounders. To minimise confounding, we also used a self\u2010controlled case\u2010crossover design.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 24\u2009743 patients with newly diagnosed ALD cirrhosis, the 5\u2010year fracture risk was 19.0% (95% CI: 18.4%\u201319.4%). Fracture risk was increased during the first 30\u2009days after initiation of opioids (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]: 3.20, 95% CI: 2.30\u20134.45), benzodiazepines (aHR: 2.17, 95% CI: 1.37\u20133.76), or gabapentinoids (aHR: 2.43, 95% CI: 1.66\u20133.55), whereas antidepressant initiation did not affect fracture risk (aHR: 1.07, 95% CI: 0.62\u20131.84). Similar within\u2010person results were obtained using the self\u2010controlled design. Notably, the risk\u2010increasing effects of opioids, benzodiazepines, and gabapentinoids decreased with the duration of exposure, and none of the drugs increased fracture risk if the patient had been using them for more than 365\u2009days.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In ALD cirrhosis, fracture risk is increased when treatment with opioids, benzodiazepines, or gabapentinoids is initiated, but not with long\u2010term use.
