description •Large population-based study on incident infections in MS patients.•Increased risk of incident serious/non-serious infections in MS patients.•Highest risk for urinary tract/kidney infections.•Increased risk included risk especially for respiratory/throat infections and pneumonia/influenza. Multiple sclerosis (MS) patients have an increased risk of infections, but few population-based studies have reported infections occurring in MS in the years immediately after diagnosis. To explore incident infections in MS, stratified by age and sex. In a Swedish population-based cohort study 6602 incident MS patients (aged ≥18 years), matched at diagnosis with 61,828 matched MS-free individuals were identified between 1st January 2008 and 31st December 2016, using national registers. Incidence rates (IR) and incidence rate ratios (IRR) with 95% CI were calculated for each outcome. The IRRs were 2.54 (95% CI 2.28–2.83) for first serious infection and 1.61 (1.52–1.71) for first non-serious infection. Compared with MS-free individuals, MS patients had higher IRs for skin, respiratory/throat infections, pneumonia/influenza, bacterial, viral, and fungal infections, with the highest IRR observed for urinary tract/kidney infections (2.44; 2.24–2.66). The cumulative incidence for most of these infections was higher among MS patients than MS-free individuals, both 0 to
