[Therapy of asthenic disorders after psychotic conditions in patients with cognitive impairment: results of an observational non-interventional program].

OBJECTIVE

An observational non-interventional study was conducted to obtain data on the efficacy and safety of Prospekta in the treatment of postpsychotic asthenia in patients with cognitive impairment (CI).

MATERIAL AND METHODS

We selected 69 patients aged 18-75 years with asthenic disorders that developed after suffering psychotic conditions and CI, who were prescribed Prospekta. At four visits (at baseline, after 2, 4 and 8 weeks), the doctor collected complaints, anamnesis, examined the patient, assessed the severity of asthenia on the MFI-20 (The Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory-20) scale, CI - on the MMSE (The Mini-mental state examination). Concomitant diseases and maintenance therapy of the underlying disease were recorded, and the safety of treatment with Prospect was evaluated. At the last visit, the doctor's clinical impression was assessed using the CGI-I (Clinical Global Impression - Global Improvement Scale).

RESULTS

The analysis included data from 69 patients (mean age 45.7 years), of which 27 (33.4%) were women. Prospekta reduced the severity of asthenia on the MFI-20 scale from 85.7±6.6 to 51.6±7.1 points, including general asthenia, mental and physical asthenia, and contributed to an increase in activity and motivation (<0.001). 8-week treatment with Prospekta improved cognitive function on the MMSE scale from 25.7±3.7 to 28.8±1.5 points (<0.001). There was no effect of the drug on blood pressure, heart rate. 76 adverse events (AEs) were detected in 22 patients, of which 62 AEs (82%) were of mild severity, 14 AEs (18%) were of moderate severity. A causal relationship of AEs with taking Prospekta, according to doctors, was absent in 48 (63%) cases.

CONCLUSION

Prospekta is an effective and safe drug for the treatment of asthenic disorders that have developed after suffering psychotic conditions in patients with CI.
