| アブストラクト | BACKGROUND: In clinical practice, observations have been made regarding bladder and urethral symptoms (BUS), notably urinary frequency and urgency, among patients prescribed the anti-seizure medication (ASM) lacosamide. However, the precise association between ASMs and BUS events in real-world settings remains elusive. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database were employed and the analysis focused on ASMs-associated BUS events utilizing disproportionality analysis methods, including the reporting odds ratio (ROR) and the proportional reporting ratio (PRR). Furthermore, co-administration, time to onset of ASMs-associated BUS events, and severity assessments were conducted. RESULTS: Several ASMs demonstrated statistically meaningful associations with BUS signals, notably ezogabine, valproic acid/valproate sodium, and clorazepate (p < 0.05). And ASMs-associated BUS events predominantly occurred within the first week and persisted for more than 180 days afterward. Diazepam, gabapentin, and brivaracetam exhibited distinct risk profiles for severe BUS events compared to valproic acid/sodium valproate (p < 0.05). And the nomogram constructed in this study exhibited robust predictive performance. CONCLUSION: This study yields valuable insights into the association between ASMs and BUS events, but several limitations warrant consideration. Nonetheless, these findings emphasize the significance of vigilance and proactive management of ASMs-associated BUS events. |
