| アブストラクト | INTRODUCTION: Side effects are a very important aspect of antipsychotic treatments. Weight gain is an important side effect that jeopardizes the uninterrupted therapy administration, especially in patients with psychiatric conditions. This case-non-case pharmacovigilance study aims at investigating in a real-world adverse event reporting system whether several antipsychotics increase the risk of weight gain reporting, and the differences among men and women as far as weight gain as a reported adverse event is concerned. AREAS COVERED: Adverse event reports submitted to the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System of the Food and Drug Administration of the United States (FAERS) of 24 major antipsychotics were extracted, cleaned, and analyzed to determine which of these drugs were correlated with weight gain. The Reported Odds Ratio (ROR) and the adjusted Reported Odds Ratio (aROR) were calculated for each antipsychotic using logistic regression models. Demographics like age, gender, and concomitant insulin use were taken into consideration for each drug. EXPERT OPINION: Women had a statistically significant increase in weight gain reporting compared to men, while the men's group was associated with a reduced weight gain reporting in every antipsychotics in the logistic regression analyses. Out of the 24 antipsychotics included in our analysis, Aripiprazole, Brexpiprazole, Olanzapine, and Haloperidol had statistically significantly more weight increase reporting compared to the others. |
