Abstract

In this retrospective analysis, we analyzed all clinical record data in our Medical Division between January 2005 and December 2006 to evaluate an association between clomipramine treatment and glucose intolerance. Of 1997 patients, 154 (7.7 %) had diabetes and 525 (26.3 %) had depression. Diabetes prevalence was significantly higher in patients treated with clomipramine than in patients not treated [odds ratio 3.9, (2.2–7.0), p < 0.00001], independently by age and BMI. A possible causal role needs to be investigated in a prospective way.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
