摘要
人们对加拿大原住民使用抗抑郁药物的情况知之甚少。这一信息将有助于开始估计用这类药物治疗的疾病的患病率,并制定适当的方案。居住在不列颠哥伦比亚省的第一民族的抗抑郁药物索赔是从非保险健康福利药房数据库中提取的。2001年,9.8% (95% CI = 9.81, 9.79)的人口开了抗抑郁药物治疗处方,索赔者平均年龄为40.3岁,男女比例约为3:1。最常见的药物是帕罗西汀、阿波阿米替林、文拉法辛和赛乐昔。这类药物的使用是常见的,需要在这方面进行更多的研究。
Antidepressant medication use among First Nations peoples residing within British Columbia.
Very little is known about antidepressant medication use among First Nations people in Canada. This information would be useful to begin estimating the prevalence of conditions treated with this class of medications and planning appropriate programs. Antidepressant medication claims for First Nations people residing within British Columbia were extracted from the Non-Insured Health Benefits pharmacy database. During 2001, 9.8% (95% CI = 9.81, 9.79) of the population filled a prescription for antidepressant pharmacotherapy, claimant mean age was 40.3 years and the female:male ratio was approximately 3:1. The most common medications were Paxil, Apo-Amitriptyline, Effexor, and Celexa. Use of this medication class is common and more research is needed in this area of study.
期刊介绍:
American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research: The Journal of the National Center is a professionally refereed scientific journal. It contains empirical research, program evaluations, case studies, unpublished dissertations, and other articles in the behavioral, social, and health sciences which clearly relate to the mental health status of American Indians and Alaska Natives. All topical areas relating to this field are addressed, such as psychology, psychiatry, nursing, sociology, anthropology, social work, and specific areas of education, medicine, history, and law. Through a standardized format (American Psychological Association guidelines) new data regarding this special population is easier to retrieve, compare, and evaluate.
