Description

This code is a modified version of the DrugPrep algorithm (see https://www.zenodo.org/record/1313712#.W3GMFPlKtpg) that was developed to support a specific analysis (exposure measurement error when assessing current glucocorticoid use) and is shared for replication purposes only.

Notes

The development of the original DrugPrep algorithm was supported by the Arthritis Research UK Centre for Epidemiology (grant 20380) Contributions to DrugPrep v1.0.0-v2.0.0: Mark Lunt (design & implemention of code), Stephen Pye (design & implementation of code) Mohammad Movahedi (design and implementation of code), Ruth Costello (bug fixes), Rebecca Joseph (data curation), Kamilla Kopec-Harding (data curation), William G Dixon (principal investigator/conceptualisation/funding) The original DrugPrep code was extended and modified by Rebecca Joseph to produce the code published separately here.
