| アブストラクト | Insomnia has become an increasingly serious public health issue with complex causes, among which medications act as a significant factor. This study aims to systematically detect and evaluate drug adverse event signals associated with insomnia risk using the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. The analysis utilized data from the FAERS database covering January 2004 to December 2024. Disproportionality analysis was conducted using 4 algorithms: reporting odds ratio, proportional reporting ratio, information component (IC), and empirical Bayes geometric mean. Potential risk signals were deemed significant only when all 4 algorithms simultaneously met their thresholds. Subgroup analyses were further performed, stratified by age and sex, to assess the robustness of signals across different populations. From 2004 to 2024, there were 179,697 adverse event reports of insomnia in FAERS in which one or more medications were designated as the primary suspect. The top 30 medications with the strongest signal strength were predominantly nervous system medicines (18 types, 60%), followed by respiratory system medicines (3 types, 10%), and genitourinary system and sex hormones (3 types, 10%). The top 3 medications with the highest reporting frequency were mefloquine, viloxazine, and flibanserin. Subgroup analyses revealed distinct drug signal profiles across age groups and genders, with pediatric cases dominated by nervous system and anti-infective agents, adults and the elderly showing additional endocrine or hormonal signals, and sex specific signals such as finasteride in males and flibanserin in females. This pharmacovigilance study identifies insomnia risk signals across multiple drug classes, underscoring the need for clinical vigilance regarding drug-related sleep disturbances. Further prospective research is required to confirm these associations. |
