| アブストラクト | BACKGROUND: Levetiracetam, a widely prescribed antiseizure medication, is recognized for its broad-spectrum efficacy, good tolerability, and minimal drug interactions. This study examines the association between levetiracetam and rhabdomyolysis, utilizing real-world data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to further elucidate its safety profile. METHODS: This study extracted adverse events related to levetiracetam from the FAERS database (Q1 2013 to Q1 2024). Four types of disproportionality analysis identified rhabdomyolysis as a significant adverse event. Logistic regression assessed risk factors, including gender, age, and severity. A Gaussian Mixture Model analyzed the time-to-onset distribution of rhabdomyolysis, while the impact of concomitant medications on its risk was evaluated using Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR). RESULTS: Levetiracetam significantly increased rhabdomyolysis risk (ROR = 13.5). Males showed a higher incidence (OR = 2.60). Most adverse events occurred within the first 30 days, with a bimodal onset distribution. Co-administration of antibiotics, antipsychotics, and PPIs elevated the risk while other antiseizure medications did not. CONCLUSION: This study found a significant association between levetiracetam and the risk of rhabdomyolysis, highlighting the need for increased clinical vigilance in this patient population. Future research should focus on elucidating the underlying mechanisms and optimizing clinical guidelines. |
