The main barriers to the influenza vaccine were lack of belief regarding its need [52% (44)], experience of mild severity of influenza [30% (25)], and lack of GP recommendation [25% (21)]. Physicians, dedicated websites, and family members are the most common sources of information regarding influenza. Even among those vaccinated for influenza, only 17% (6) had information about the risk of not taking the vaccine. A high level of dissatisfaction with the information was found among patients not vaccinated against influenza. People wanted more information on who should not receive the influenza vaccination.

Self-reported data on participants' use of NHPs (including photographs of products), consultations with TCAM practitioners and use of conventional medicines were collected. Data on the prevalence and patterns of use of NHPs were analysed and reported using descriptive statistics. Multivariable logistic regression was applied to assess the impact of sociodemographic variables on NHPs, TCAM practitioners and conventional medicines use.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The final sample comprised 992 participants. Sociodemographic data for these participants were comparable to those reported for the NZ Census 2018. The frequency of missing data was &lt; 10% for most of the questions; data quality for broad-level prevalence analysis was good, but was moderate to poor for analysis at the specific NHP or TCAM practitioner level. The specific product(s) and their respective ingredient list(s) could not be determined for most NHPs described as photographs were not uploaded, rendering product names unverifiable. Preliminary data indicate that 57.6% of participants have used NHPs and 22.9% consulted a TCAM practitioner in the last 12 months. Among current NHP users, 71.1% concurrently used one or more conventional medicines. Over half (53%) of the NHPs were self-selected (not recommended by a health practitioner). The median daily cost per NHP was NZD 0.28 (interquartile range NZD 0.14-0.50) and the median cost for visits to a TCAM practitioner over the last 12 months was NZD 120 (interquartile range NZD 40-270). Female participants, younger individuals and conventional medicine users were more likely to use NHPs/consult a TCAM practitioner/use any TCAM. Higher-income participants were more inclined to consult a TCAM practitioner. Individuals born overseas were more likely to use any type of TCAM.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;There was a high prevalence of use of NHPs and of consultations with TCAM practitioners, which may reflect the extent of use in the general NZ population.

This review explores the existing literature on this topic, investigating a wide variety of ASMs, ranging from first-generation medications to newer ones. A comprehensive search was conducted on all the currently approved ASMs using PubMed and Google Scholar: review articles, clinical trials, meta-analysis, observational studies, case reports, and relevant animal studies were identified. We extracted 15 ASMs including valproic acid (VPA), carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital, diazepam, clonazepam, lamotrigine, levetiracetam, oxcarbazepine, felbamate, topiramate, pregabalin, lacosamide, cannabidiol (CBD), and perampanel that contain considerable literature regarding different coagulopathies. An in-depth review of over 140 studies revealed a robust association between ASM-induced changes and the onset of bleeding disorders via several different mechanisms. Polytherapy, the use of multiple ASMs, also emerged as a significant risk factor for the development of coagulopathies. This review highlights the potential link between ASMs and bleeding disorders, emphasizing the importance of considering this risk during treatment planning. By understanding these associations, healthcare providers can optimize patient outcomes and minimize bleeding risks. Additionally, this review identifies the need for further research to bridge current knowledge gaps in clinical pharmacology related to ASMs and bleeding disorders.</p>","PeriodicalId":11282,"journal":{"name":"Drugs - Real World Outcomes","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11829880/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142920313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The 2023 Beers criteria was used to identify potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs). Community health workers carried out interviews assessing different health outcomes, such as cognition, sleep, mental health, quality of life, successful aging, and life satisfaction.

Some sociodemographic factors (e.g., marital status and race) and clinical factors (e.g., difficulties in activities of daily living and the number of diseases) were associated with the presence and/or number of PIMs at baseline. In the longitudinal analysis, the presence of PIMs exhibited associations with a spectrum of outcomes observed after a 1-year follow-up period. These outcomes included diminished physical quality of life (B = -0.21; p = 0.030), disrupted sleep patterns (B = 1.14; p < 0.001), compromised mental health-depression (B = 1.04; p = 0.041), stress (B = 2.00; p = 0.001), and anxiety (B = 1.26; p = 0.004), successful aging (B = -1.92; p = 0.033), and satisfaction with life (B = -0.77; p = 0.013).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The use of at least one PIM, according to the 2023 Beers criteria, was high and associated with worse health outcomes.
