| アブストラクト | Aggression is the most common adverse effect of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). This study aimed to investigate the association of aggression with AED use. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) from adverse event reports, submitted to the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database between 2004 and 2020, was used to calculate and investigate the association between AEDs and aggression. We also analyzed the association of aggression with the combined use of AEDs and the relationship between AED-associated aggression and patient characteristics. A total of 433 patients developed aggression. Significant aggression signals were detected for perampanel (crude ROR: 325.04, 95% confidence interval (CI): 118.48-752.58, p < 0.01), levetiracetam (crude ROR: 17.14, 95% CI: 10.33-26.90, p < 0.01), lacosamide (crude ROR: 16.90, 95% CI: 2.02-62.51, p < 0.01), lamotrigine (crude ROR: 15.98, 95% CI: 9.99-24.39, p < 0.01), valproate (crude ROR: 6.68, 95% CI: 4.27-10.02, p < 0.01), and carbamazepine (crude ROR: 2.47, 95% CI: 1.17-4.59, p < 0.01). The combined therapy with perampanel and levetiracetam had a significant aggression signal (adjusted ROR: 25.90, 95% CI: 1.14-59.10, p < 0.01). In addition, we found that aggression frequently occurred in patients <60 year (adjusted ROR: 2.88, 95% CI: 1.49-5.56, p < 0.01) treated with levetiracetam. These results may be useful for minimizing the risk of aggression during the treatment of AEDs. |
