Associations of body mass index (A), smoking (B), alcohol intake (C), physical activity (D), and the Alternate Healthy Eating Index score (E) with all‐cause mortality according to regular use of common preventive medications. Common preventive medications included aspirin, antihypertensives, and lipid‐lowering medications; regular medication use was defined as use ≥2 tablets per week or ≥2 times per week. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression was used to calculate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs while adjusting for age, calendar period, ethnicity, current multivitamin use, family history of diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction, or cancer; menopausal status and hormone use (women only); and the other 4 of the 5 lifestyle factors. Error bars indicate 95% CIs.
