Abstract: Background Non-adherence to antiepileptic drugs ( AEDs) is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality in the general population but little is known about adherence in individuals with intellectual disability ( ID). Method Using the records of a closed pharmacy billing system over a 30 month period, we examined the medication non-adherence rates for AEDs among 793 individuals with ID. We calculated the medication possession ratio (number of days each participant was in possession of an AED), and defined non-adherence as 25% or more of the exposure days without the possession of an AED. All participants studied had filled prescriptions for AEDs spanning at least 6 months. Results Controlling for age and gender, we found non-adherence rates varied by living arrangement. Compared with those living in group homes, individuals with ID living in family homes or in semi-independent settings were significantly less adherent to AEDs ( P < 0.0003). Conclusion Non-adherence to AEDs is a potential medical risk for individuals with ID that is significantly impacted by the type of community living arrangement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
