Because traditional nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs are associated with increased risk for acute cardiovascular events, current guidelines recommend acetaminophen as the first-line analgesic of choice on the assumption of its greater cardiovascular safety.

Hence, the aim of this study was to evaluate the safety of acetaminophen in patients with coronary artery disease.
