چکیده انگلیسی
Psychiatric disorders are more common in patients with epilepsy than in the general population. The aims of the study were to assess the frequency and type of psychotropic drug usage in patients with epilepsy, to assess the risk factors for their use, and to assess their proconvulsive potential and the risk of interactions with antiepileptic drugs. This 20-month prospective study included patients treated at the university hospital outpatient clinic. Psychotropic drugs have been classified according to the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System. Of the 621 patients (with a mean age of 35.4Â years), 60% were women, and 37.5% were in remission; 54.8% of the patients used antiepileptic drug monotherapy. The most commonly used antiepileptic drugs were valproate, levetiracetam, lamotrigine, and carbamazepine. Eighty-nine (14.3%) patients received psychiatric comedication. Sertraline, perazine, and hydroxyzine were the predominantly used psychotropic drugs. Independent variables associated with psychotropic drug usage in the logistic regression model included age, active epilepsy, combined focal and generalized epilepsy type, use of somatic comedication, and phenobarbital. Over one-third of the patients simultaneously received antiepileptic drugs and psychotropic drugs, between which clinically significant interactions may occur, 10% of patients used psychotropic drugs to lower the seizure threshold. The results of the study indicate the need for closer cooperation between doctors of various specialties when caring for patients with epilepsy.
