Nonadherence to antiepileptic medication and associated factors among persons with epilepsy in India: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Background
Nonadherence to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) is a prevalent issue in India, contributing to suboptimal seizure control, higher morbidity and mortality, increased hospitalization rates, and a substantial effect on the overall quality of life for individuals with epilepsy.
Objectives
This study aimed to measure the prevalence of medication adherence among individuals with epilepsy in India and to identify factors associated with nonadherence.
Methods
Following PRISMA guidelines, we searched PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar for studies on AED adherence in India. Quality assessment employed Newcastle Ottawa Scale adapted for cross-sectional studies. Pooled prevalence was ascertained using a random-effects model in R software (version 4.2.2), with a 95% confidence interval. Heterogeneity was estimated with the I2 statistic, and publication bias was appraised via a funnel plot. Subgroup analyses, based on study region and adherence measurement tool, were done to investigate heterogeneity.
Results
Nine cross-sectional studies with 1772 participants were analyzed. The pooled prevalence of adherence to AEDs in India stood at 49.9% (95% CI: 39.8%-60.1%). Subgroup analyses showed comparable adherence rates in the South (50.9%) and North (46.5%) regions of India. However, adherence rates varied substantially based on the measurement tool: Morisky Medication Adherence Scale-4 (MMAS-4) reported 71.3%, MMAS-8 indicated 45.9%, and Morisky Green Levine (MGL) adherence scale exhibited 42.0%. Factors contributing to non-adherence to antiepileptic therapies involved poor socioeconomic status, lower education levels, polytherapy, drug-related side effects, and substance abuse.
Conclusions
Almost half of persons with epilepsy in India were non-adherent to their AEDs. This underscores the importance for healthcare professionals to pay greater attention to improving the adherence rate to AEDs within the healthcare service.
期刊介绍:
Epilepsy Research provides for publication of high quality articles in both basic and clinical epilepsy research, with a special emphasis on translational research that ultimately relates to epilepsy as a human condition. The journal is intended to provide a forum for reporting the best and most rigorous epilepsy research from all disciplines ranging from biophysics and molecular biology to epidemiological and psychosocial research. As such the journal will publish original papers relevant to epilepsy from any scientific discipline and also studies of a multidisciplinary nature. Clinical and experimental research papers adopting fresh conceptual approaches to the study of epilepsy and its treatment are encouraged. The overriding criteria for publication are novelty, significant clinical or experimental relevance, and interest to a multidisciplinary audience in the broad arena of epilepsy. Review articles focused on any topic of epilepsy research will also be considered, but only if they present an exceptionally clear synthesis of current knowledge and future directions of a research area, based on a critical assessment of the available data or on hypotheses that are likely to stimulate more critical thinking and further advances in an area of epilepsy research.
