AI Summary
This review article explores the contributing factors and incidence of non-adherence to bipolar medication among patients. The study suggests that younger patients have a higher incidence of non-adherence, and factors such as adverse effects of medication, economic status, and hospitalization history play a role. The article also discusses potential interventions to improve medication adherence.

BIPOLAR MEDICATION
Methods
The search strategy employed aimed to identify articles that would provide evidence on
the topic of interest, non-adherence to bipolar medication within bipolar patient depending on the
age. The data bases used for the study were EMBASE and PUBMED. The search terms used :
polypharmacy or non, bipolar, mania, patterns of treatment, non-adherence to bipolar medication
and persistence. The finding organized using the PRISMA flow chart ( figure 1).
The eligibility criteria for inclusion study are as follows:
All articles are taken are peer review journal.
All Articles are published in English
All Articles that are extracted on and after the 2013.
All articles are focused on the non compliance to the bipolar medication
All articles are focused on the human subjects.
Articles having the abstracts are included
Additionally, studies that described non-adherence to pharmacological drugs used to treat
mania and psychosis were included in the study.
The eligibility for the exclusion criteria are as follows:
All non peer review journal were excluded
All non English journal were excluded
All journal focused on the animal model were excluded
All articles are focused on the non compliance to other psychological disorder other than
bipolar medication can be excluded.
The articles having clinical guidelines are excluded.

articles that explained non- adherence to pharmacological treatment for other mental

Articles that sought to find out strategies of enhancing adherence to bipolar medication,
cost of managing the illness, the burden of the condition, quality and safety of life and
articles that explained non- adherence to pharmacological treatment for other mental
health disorders were excluded.
The total number of 4450 articles was screened from the databases. After screening and
excluding the duplication of the articles 2125 full texts articles were taken which had abstracts.
1800 articles were screened and excluded 1770 articles. Finally, 30 full text articles were further
reviewed for eligibility based on inclusion criteria and out of this , 8 journals were included for

NON-ADHERENCE TO BIPOLAR MEDICATION
Findings
In the current review, studies were evaluated for quality using the Johns Hopkins Nursing
Evidence-Based Practice leveling system. The Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice
structure consists of five rating levels (Dang & Dearholt, 2017). The data were extracted for
each of the eight papers and a review of author and date, evidence type, findings, sample and
setting, limitation, observable measures, and data quality was done. From the deduction of the 8
full-text journals eligible for inclusion criteria, it was observed that the incidence of
nonadherence is higher in the case of younger patients. A cross-sectional study by Corréard et al.
(2017), suggested that after bipolar medication the neuropsychological performance of the
younger patient is better compared to the elder patient. However, the incidence of the
nonadherence to the bipolar medication is high which is influenced by various factors. One of the
important factors that observed by the study is the high adverse effect of the medication which
acts as the risk factor for the non-adherence, especially in a younger patient (García et al.,
2016). However, the limitation of the study is that the researchers were biased towards the
patient while selecting the patient and they did not consider the effect of natural aging. Another
study suggested that lifetime hospitalization is another risk factor of low adherence to the bipolar
medication regardless of ages. However, it was also found that the longer hospitalization also
associated with learning effect but in a young bipolar patient, the adherence is still low due to the
short illness. The study by Goldstein et al. ( 2016), Suggested the patient with current depression
due to bipolar and cocaine-dependent shows that they have baseline cognitive functioning and
high adherence to the bipolar medication. Interestingly, the decline of prospective memory is
associated with the high incidence of non-adherence mostly in the older patient (Levin et al.,
2017). The one possible explanation of this phenomenon is age-related impairment is associated

with the deterioration of the frontal lobe. However, further studies needed for the efficacy of the
interventions such as combination the cognitive remediation through the therapy and biological
medications (Levin et al., 2015). Another systematic review by Cutler et al. ( 2018), the
incidence of non adherence is directly associated with the economic status of the individual
irrespective of the age. Due to the high expenses of the bipolar medication, a bipolar patient with
lower social economic status does not seek the help of medication (Mert et al., 2015).
Subsequently, the non-adherence incidence is high. Sometimes the patient prefers cognitive
therapy due to the high cost of antipsychotic medicines (Levin et al., 2015). Therefore, the
adherence is low for the bipolar medication in the patient with a lower socioeconomic status.
Moreover, the studies Ralat, Depp, & Bernal (2017) shows that the use of the antipsychotic
medication give rise to the higher risk of cardiovascular disease and therefore the incidence is
high. The age adoptive therapeutic interventions to improve medication adherence (Ralat, Depp,
& Bernal, 2017). Thus, it can be concluded that the high adherence to the bipolar disorder can be
achieved if the intervention plan designed on the basis of the economic status of the patient, the
health status of the patient, age and the amount of administration of the medicine (Mert et al.,
2015)..
