- Abstract
Oral bisphosphonates are widely used for fracture prevention, but there is a concern regarding potential adverse cardiovascular effects of bisphosphonates. In this large, population-based case-control study, we found no evidence of an association between bisphosphonate use and risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE).
