Abstract

Bipolar disorder (BD) of childhood and adolescence is not rare but difficult to diagnose because of its atypical presentation compared with that of adults. Similar to treatment for adults with BD, pharmacotherapy is considered as the first-line treatment for pediatric BD and usually involve the use of mood stabilizing agents such as lithium, carbamazepine, and valproate and antipsychotic agents, such as risperidone, olanzapine, and quetiapine. Sufficient data was not obtained about pharmacotherapy of BD and most of the studies to date do not have standard assessment protocols and placebo control groups. In this article we aimed to review all controlled , open, and special designed studies and to inform about their findings. According to results from published studies: 1- There are few well-designed clinical trials and systematic treatment with prospective follow-up is essential for methodology, 2- lithium and divalproex sodium appear to have comparable efficacy at the end of the trials, 3- some controlled data were obtained for safety and efficacy of quetiapine, 4- stimulants should be used cautiously but are not contraindicated

Özet

Çocukluk ve ergenlik çağı bipolar bozukluk (BB) nadir değildir, fakat aynı bozukluklu erişkinlerle karşılaştırıldığında ortaya çıkan atipik görünümü nedeni ile tanı konulması güçtür. BB’lu erişkinlerin tedavisine benzer olarak, farmakoterapi pediatrik BB’un ilk basamak tedavisi olarak görülmektedir ve genellikle lityum, valproat, karbamazepin gibi duygudurum düzenleyici ajanlar ve risperidon olanzapin ve ketiapin gibi antipsikotiklerin kullanımını içermektedir. BB’un farmakoterapisi ile ilgili yeterince bilgi sağlanamamıştır ve bugüne kadar olan çalışmaların çoğu standart değerlendirme protokolleri ve plasebo kontrol gruplarına sahip değildir. Bu makalede biz tüm kontrollü, açık ve özel tasarlanmış çalışmaları gözden geçirmek ve onların bulgularını bildirmeyi amaçladık. Bu mevcut çalışmaların bulgularına göre: 1- Birkaç iyi tasarlanmış klinik deneme vardır. İleriye dönük kayıt tutma ile sistematik tedavi yöntemsel açıdan yaşamsaldır, 2- Klinik denemelerin sonunda lityum ve valproat karşılaştırılabilir etkinliğe sahip gibi görünmektedir, 3- Ketiapinin etkinliği ve güvenilirliğine yönelik bazı kontrollü bilgiler sağlanmıştır, 4- Uyarıcılar dikkatli kullanılmalıdır ancak kontrendike değildir.
