Various exact tests for showing a di&erence between two treatments or the non-inferiority (therapeutic equivalence) based on the di&erence of two binomial proportions are compared. It is found that a frequently used test has to be applied with great caution due to its numerical instability. Furthermore, a test based on the score statistic can be recommended as a good compromise between a simple...
