Compare medication utilization, costs and healthcare resource use in schizophrenia patients with substance-related disorders initiated on once-monthly paliperidone palmitate (PP1M) or an oral atypical antipsychotic (OAA).
MATERIALS & METHODS: Data from six Medicaid states (07/2009-03/2015) were used to compare outcomes between PP1M and OAA patients.
PP1M patients had higher 12-month antipsychotic adherence and persistence than OAA patients. PP1M patients had lower medical (mean monthly cost difference [MMCD] = US$-191, p = 0.020), higher pharmacy (MMCD = US$250, p < 0.001) and similar total costs (MMCD = US$59, p = 0.517) during the overall follow-up. PP1M patients had lower rates of outpatient visits and inpatient days but higher rates of mental health-related utilization.
PP1M was associated with higher antipsychotic adherence and persistence, and similar total costs versus OAA.
比较起始使用每月一次棕榈酸帕利哌酮(PP1M)或口服非典型抗精神病药物(OAA)的合并物质相关障碍的精神分裂症患者的药物使用情况、成本和医疗资源利用情况。
使用来自六个医疗补助州(2009年7月 - 2015年3月)的数据来比较PP1M组和OAA组患者的结局。
PP1M组患者的12个月抗精神病药物依从性和持续性高于OAA组患者。在整个随访期间,PP1M组患者的医疗费用较低(平均每月费用差异[MMCD] = -191美元,p = 0.020),药房费用较高(MMCD = 250美元,p < 0.001),总费用相似(MMCD = 59美元,p = 0.517)。PP1M组患者的门诊就诊率和住院天数较低,但与心理健康相关的利用率较高。
与OAA相比,PP1M与更高的抗精神病药物依从性和持续性以及相似的总费用相关。
