Deduplicated FAERS database for a 22-year disproportionality analysis of SSRIs and lethal violence, 2004 Q1 – 2025 Q4

The deduplicated FAERS database underlying Varia J, Nicholson T, Manookian L, “A 22-year disproportionality analysis of SSRIs and lethal violence in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System”. master_dedup.rds — all non-duplicated case reports, 2004 Q1 – 2025 Q4 (19,687,141 reports)master_mono.rds — the subset naming a single distinct drug (11,273,546 reports) Built from the FAERS quarterly ASCII files with the faers R package (v1.5.5), standardised against MedDRA 29.0, deduplicated automatically and then by manual clinical review (6,227 further reports removed; full list in the code repository). This version rebuilds master_mono.rds under a corrected drug-counting rule: a drug is counted once per report by its name as written, so two differently worded entries for the same unidentified drug are no longer merged into one. master_dedup.rds is unchanged from v3. These files support replication route 3 in the analysis code:https://github.com/JeetVaria/ssri-lethal-violence-faers SHA-256master_dedup.rds 00e3766939beb8851a13b02cf5efc46b4caf9cb5042b78922f5a4e5de893ab91master_mono.rds e769c276ce4c72f44cbab60a322e6950e0456eb822d41f291b91e6057e7cd069
