アブストラクト | BACKGROUND: Patients with dementia are prescribed low-dose atypical antipsychotics (AAPs) to treat psycho-behavioral symptoms. Although AAPs are known to cause diabetes mellitus-related adverse events (DMAEs), information regarding AAPs-induced DMAEs experienced by patients with dementia is lacking. OBJECTIVE: To use the Japan Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database to assess the onset tendencies and patterns of DMAEs attributable to AAPs prescribed to patients with dementia. METHODS: We performed an analysis using dementia cases from the JADER database that were registered from April 2004 to December 2022. Data in the JADER database are completely anonymized; thus, we did not require institutional review board approval for using the JADER database in our study. The reporting odds ratio and proportional reporting ratio (PRR) were used to assess the onset tendencies of DMAEs with AAPs. In addition, Weibull shape parameters were used to assess the patterns of DMAEs that occur with the use of AAPs. RESULTS: We identified AAPs associated with DMAEs. In particular, low doses of quetiapine showed the potential to induce DMAEs. An analysis of the onset of DMAEs showed the early failure patterns for AAPs (median onset = 38 days). CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE: The AAPs may cause DMAEs in patients with dementia. Low doses of quetiapine may induce DMAEs. Health care workers should focus on the development of DMAEs during the early administration period of AAPs. These results may assist with the safe management of patients with dementia who use AAPs. |
