• U.S. researchers have found evidence that long-term use of aspirin increased the risk of pancreatic cancer in a large group of women.
• Most recent studies about such anti-inflammatory drugs have found evidence they offer protection against diseases such as heart disease and stroke and may reduce the risk of breast cancer, mouth and throat cancer, lung cancer and Alzheimer's disease.
• Harvard University researcher Eva Schernhammer was expecting to find a positive effect of acetylsalicylic acid (which is marketed under the brand name Aspirin), of ibuprofen and of other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs when she began investigating pancreatic-cancer risk.
• Dr. Schernhammer concluded that extended use of ASA may increase the risk of getting pancreatic cancer by as much as 86 per cent.
