| アブストラクト | AIM: This study evaluates reports on neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) as an adverse event associated with the use of atypical antipsychotic agents (AAA) in Japan. We examined NMS occurrence following monotherapy and combination therapy with AAA in real clinical practice using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database. METHODS: Adverse drug reaction reports associated with the use of one or more AAA or haloperidol were analyzed. The odds ratios of NMS occurrence after monotherapy and combination therapy with AAA without typical antipsychotic agents (TAA) relative to those after haloperidol monotherapy were estimated using multiple logistic regression. RESULTS: Associated with the use of one or more AAA without TAA were 721 events of NMS in 11 071 cases. NMS occurrence after monotherapy with most AAA and their combinations had lower odds ratios than that after haloperidol use. However, the odds ratios after blonanserin monotherapy and combination therapies with quetiapine and zotepine, and risperidone and zotepine were estimated higher than 1. CONCLUSION: Monotherapy or combination therapy with most AAA without TAA was not likely to cause NMS as an adverse reaction compared to haloperidol monotherapy. However, blonanserin monotherapy and combination therapies with quetiapine and zotepine, and risperidone and zotepine, possibly increase the report of NMS. Our results may provide useful information for medications such as AAA that are clinically used to treat mental disorders, though further research with more data are needed to clarify this. |
