Abstract
The adjusted analyses showed a dose-response relationship for females, with poorer SRH predicting higher average medication for both total consumption and for the ATC groups “Musculoskeletal system” (M), “Nervous system” (N; Analgesics (N02), Opioids (N02A)) and “Respiratiory system” (R). The predictive power of SRH, as well as the role of the adjustment factors, varies by gender and drug groups. This knowledge is important in order to identify risks for later disease and to capture pathological changes before and beyond the disease diagnosis, potentially preventing morbidity in the adult population.
