This review examines drug utilization patterns for six atypical antipsychotics, Abilify® (aripiprazole), Geodon® (ziprasidone), Seroquel® (quetiapine), Zyprexa® (olanzapine), Risperdal® (risperidone), Invega® (paliperidone), in the pediatric population (age 0-2 years, 3-6 years, 7-12 years, 13-17 years, and 18+ years) from year 2004 through June 2009. Since approximately 56%-81% of the atypical antipsychotics were sold to U.S. outpatient retail settings during year 2008, this review focuses on the outpatient setting. • All of the antipsychotic agents studied except for olanzapine had an increase in the number of dispensed prescriptions over the past 5 years. • Dispensed prescriptions for aripiprazole increased the most by approximately 135% from year 2004 • Antipsychotic use among pediatric patients has increased by 22% over the 5 years. The greatest increase was seen for aripiprazole during this time period. • Risperidone had the most prescriptions dispensed (26%) to pediatric patients (0-17 years) and had a greater amount of use in younger children compared to the other antipsychotics. Aripiprazole had the second highest number of dispensed prescriptions (23%) in the pediatric population. • In year 2008, 2.3 million unique patients received a prescription for quetiapine followed by risperidone with 1.5 million and aripiprazole with 1.2 million. • For all of the agents studied, the majority of prescriptions dispensed to patients over the entire study period were prescribed by Psychiatrists. • In children aged 7-12 years old, concomitant use with stimulant medications were most common for those already on aripiprazole, risperidone and olanzapine. Mood stabilizing agents, other antipsychotics and antidepressants were the most common concomitant products for quetiapine and ziprasidone in this age group as well as for older age groups. INTRODUCTION
Using the currently available proprietary drug use databases licensed by the Agency, this review describes outpatient drug use patterns for Abilify® (aripiprazole), Geodon® (ziprasidone), Seroquel® (quetiapine), Zyprexa® (olanzapine), Risperdal® (risperidone), Invega® (paliperidone) in the pediatric population as well as in the adult population for years 2004 through 2008 and year-to-date June 2009. METHODS AND MATERIALS
2.1 DETERMINING SETTINGS OF CARE
IMS Health, IMS National Sales Perspectives™ data (see Appendix 2) were used to determine the setting
in which these six atypical antipsychotic products were sold. Sales of these products by number of bottles,
packets of pills (eaches) sold from the manufacturer into the various retail and non-retail channels of
distribution were analyzed for year 2008 (data not provided).1 During the review period, retail settings (chain
stores, independent pharmacies, and food stores) accounted for the majority of atypical antipsychotic product
sales (56% or greater). Distribution towards non-retail pharmacy settings ranged from 22% to 37% during
year 2008. The long term care setting within the non-retail channels received the majority of atypical
antipsychotic sales. Mail order distribution ranged from 4% to 8% for the six agents analyzed. Thus, we
examined outpatient utilization patterns. Mail order and long term care data are not included in this analysis.
1 IMS Health, IMS Nationals Sales PerspectivesTM, Years 2004-2008, Data extracted Aug 2009, Source file: 0908apsy.DVR 2.2 DATA SOURCES USED

Outpatient use and patient demographics (stratified by ages 0-2 years, 3-6 years, 7-12 years, 13-17 years, and
18+ years) were measured from SDI Vector One®: National (VONA) and Total Patient Tracker (TPT)
(Appendix 2). Indications for use were obtained from the SDI’s Physician’s Drug and Diagnosis Audit
(PDDA) (Appendix 2). From these data sources, estimates of the number of prescriptions dispensed, the
number of patients who received a prescription for Abilify® (aripiprazole), Geodon® (ziprasidone), Seroquel®
(quetiapine), Zyprexa® (olanzapine), Risperdal® (risperidone), Invega® (paliperidone), and the number of
drug mentions by office-based physicians, were obtained for years 2004-2008 and year-to-date June 2009.
3.1 DISPENSED PRESCRIPTIONS
Figure 1 in Appendix 1 shows the total number of prescriptions dispensed in the outpatient retail setting (mail order excluded) for Abilify® (aripiprazole), Geodon® (ziprasidone), Seroquel® (quetiapine), Zyprexa® (olanzapine), Risperdal® (risperidone), Invega® (paliperidone). During year 2008, nearly 32 million prescriptions were dispensed for these products, an increase of 31% from approximately 24.4 million dispensed prescriptions in year 2004. Approximately 11.9 million prescriptions were dispensed for quetiapine (37% of market) followed by risperidone (25% of market) and aripiprazole (16% of market) with 7.9 million and 5.2 million prescriptions, respectively. All of the agents had an increase in the number of prescriptions dispensed in the past 5 years except for olanzapine which decreased by about a third during the same time period. Dispensed prescriptions for aripiprazole increased by 135% from year 2004 (2,217,625 prescriptions) to year 2008 (5,220,606 prescriptions) followed by ziprasidone with 71% increase and quetiapine with 66% increase. 3.2 DISPENSED PRESCRIPTION BY PEDIATRIC AGE GROUPS
Antipsychotic use in the pediatric population (0-17 years) has increased 22% in the past 5 years (Figure 2: Appendix 1). The greatest increase was seen for aripiprazole at 96%. In year 2008, of the six agents analyzed, risperidone had the most prescriptions dispensed to pediatric patients aged 0-17 years (26% of all risperidone dispensed to pediatric patients versus adults; 2.1 million risperidone prescriptions), followed by aripiprazole (23%; 1.2 million prescriptions), quetiapine (9%; 1.1 million prescriptions), ziprasidone (10%; 238,425 prescriptions), olanzapine (4%; 169,121 prescriptions), and paliperidone (11%; 74,559 prescriptions). Analysis of pediatric sub-age groups revealed that the majority of antipsychotic use during year 2008 was among those aged 13-17 years; aripiprazole (13%), quetiapine (6%), ziprasidone (7%), olanzapine (2%), and paliperidone (7%). Risperidone, on the other hand, was most commonly dispensed to pediatric patients aged 7-12 years, accounting for 14% of dispensed prescriptions. Prescriptions dispensed to pediatric patients aged 0-2 years and 3-6 years accounted for less than 1% of the combined total dispensed prescriptions for all six agents with the exception of risperidone in which 2% of prescriptions are dispensed to pediatrics aged 3-6 years (Table 1: Appendix 1). 3.3 PATIENT-LEVEL DATA
Trends for patient data were similar to that of prescription data. In year 2008, approximately 5.4 million patients received a prescription for these selected antipsychotic agents in the outpatient retail pharmacy setting, an increase of 21% from 4.5 million patients in year 2004. Approximately, 2.3 million unique patients received a prescription for quetiapine followed by risperidone and aripiprazole with 1.5 million and 1.2 million, respectively. As with dispensed prescription data, analysis of pediatric sub-age groups revealed similar trends in use with patient-level data (Table 2: Appendix 1). 3.4 DIAGNOSES ASSOCIATED WITH USE
We also examined the most common diagnosis associated with the use of Abilify® (aripiprazole), Geodon® (ziprasidone), Seroquel® (quetiapine), Zyprexa® (olanzapine), Risperdal® (risperidone), Invega® (paliperidone) as reported by office-based physician practices in the U.S. (Appendix 1: Tables 3a-3e). Diagnoses among the pediatric age groups 0-2 years and 3-6 years were below the acceptable count allowable to provide a reliable estimate. Among the pediatrics aged 7-12 years “Bipolar Affective NOS” ICD-9 296.7 was the most common diagnosis associated with a mention of aripiprazole with approximately 25% of all mentions for that age group from year 2004 through year to date June 2009 followed by “Attention Deficit Dis” ICD-9 314.0 with 17%. For risperidone, the most common diagnosis among pediatrics aged 7-12 years was “Attention Deficit Dis” ICD-9 314-0 with 18% followed by “Bipolar Affective NOS” ICD-9 296.7 and “Infantile Autism” ICD-9 299.0 with 15% and 11%, respectively. For adolescents aged 13-17 years the most common diagnosis associated with a mention for aripiprazole, quetiapine, olanzapine, and ziprasidone was “Bipolar Affective NOS” ICD-9 296.7. “Attention Deficit Dis” ICD-9 314-0 and “Infantile Autism” ICD-9 299.0 were the most common diagnosis for risperidone and paliperidone, respectively, for this age group. 3.5 PEDIATRIC DISPENSED PRESCRIPTION BY PRESCRIBING SPECIALTY
Table 4a-4f in Appendix 1 shows the total number of prescriptions dispensed for Abilify® (aripiprazole), Geodon® (ziprasidone), Seroquel® (quetiapine), Zyprexa® (olanzapine), Risperdal® (risperidone), Invega® (paliperidone) by patient age and physician specialty. The majority of prescriptions dispensed to patients were prescribed by Psychiatrists over the entire study period for the pediatric as well as adult age groups for all of the agents studied. During year 2008, Nurse Practitioners were the second most common prescriber for aripiprazole, ziprasidone and paliperidone for both adult and pediatric age groups. For risperidone, quetiapine, and olanzapine, GP/FM/DO2 were the second most common prescribers of these medications to both adult and pediatric age groups. 3.6 CONCOMITANT USE
Tables 5a-5e in Appendix 1 shows the total number of health care physician mentions where one of the select antipsychotics were used concomitantly with another class of products to treat the same diagnosis. Concomitancy for all of the agents among the pediatric age groups 0-2 years and 3-6 years were below the acceptable count allowable to provide a reliable estimate of use. In those aged 7-12 years old, concomitant use with stimulant medications were most common for aripiprazole, risperidone and olanzapine. For quetiapine and ziprasidone, mood stabilizing agents such as anticonvulsants, other antipsychotics, and antidepressants were commonly used together to treat the same diagnosis. In those aged 13-17 years, concomitant use with mood stabilizing agents, other antipsychotics and antidepressants were the most common concomitant class of products for all antipsychotic agents studied. LIMITATIONS
Findings from this consult should be interpreted in the context of the known limitations of the databases used. We estimated Abilify® (aripiprazole), Geodon® (ziprasidone), Seroquel® (quetiapine), Zyprexa® (olanzapine), Risperdal® (risperidone), Invega® (paliperidone) are distributed primarily in outpatient settings based on the IMS Health, IMS National Sales Perspectives™. These data do not provide a direct estimate of use but do provide a national estimate of units sold from the manufacturer into the various channels of distribution. The amount of product purchased by these retail and non-retail channels of distribution may be a possible surrogate for use, if we assume the facilities purchase drugs in quantities reflective of actual patient use. SDI’s Physician Drug & Diagnosis Audit (PDDA) data provide estimates of patient demographics and indications for use of medicinal products in the U.S. Due to the sampling and data collection methodologies, 2 GP/FM/DO – General Practice, Family Medicine, Doctor of Osteopathy the small sample size can make these data unstable, particularly if use is not common in the pediatric population. SDI recommends caution interpreting projected annual uses or mentions below 100,000 as the sample size is very small with correspondingly large confidence intervals. CONCLUSIONS
All of the antipsychotic agents studied except for olanzapine had an increase in the number of dispensed prescriptions over the past 5 years. Dispensed prescription for Abilify® (aripiprazole) increased the greatest amount (135%). Antipsychotic use among pediatric patients aged 0-17 years have increased 22% over the past 5 years. Use among pediatrics aged 0-2 years and 3-6 years accounted for less than 1% of the total for each of the antipsychotic agents studied. Risperidone was the most commonly dispensed atypical antipsychotic agent among pediatrics, especially those aged 7-12 years. Aripiprazole pediatric prescriptions are most commonly dispensed to adolescents aged 13-17 years. Trends for patient data were similar to that of prescription data. Psychiatrists prescribe the majority of antipsychotic prescriptions dispensed. In younger children (7-12 years old), concomitant use with stimulant medications were most common for aripiprazole, risperidone and olanzapine. Mood stabilizing agents, other antipsychotics and antidepressants were the most common concomitant class of products used with quetiapine and ziprasidone in this age group as well as for older age groups.

SDI Vector One®: National (VONA)
SDI’s VONA measures retail dispensing of prescriptions or the frequency with which drugs move out of retail pharmacies into the hands of consumers via formal prescriptions. Information on the physician specialty, the patient’s age and gender, and estimates for the numbers of patients that are continuing or new to therapy are available. The Vector One® database integrates prescription activity from a variety of sources including national retail chains, mass merchandisers, mail order pharmacies, pharmacy benefits managers and their data systems, and provider groups. Vector One® receives over 2.0 billion prescription claims per year, representing over 160 million unique patients. Since 2002 Vector One® has captured information on over 8 billion prescriptions representing 200 million unique patients. Prescriptions are captured from a sample of approximately 59,000 pharmacies throughout the US. The pharmacies in the data base account for nearly all retail pharmacies and represent nearly half of retail prescriptions dispensed nationwide. SDI receives all prescriptions from approximately one-third of the stores and a significant sample of prescriptions from the remaining stores. SDI Vector One®: Total Patient Tracker (TPT)
SDI’s Total Patient Tracker is a national-level projected audit designed to estimate the total number of unique patients across all drugs and therapeutic classes in the retail outpatient setting. TPT derives its data from the Vector One® database which integrates prescription activity from a variety of sources including national retail chains, mail order pharmacies, mass merchandisers, pharmacy benefits managers and their data systems. Vector One® receives over 2 billion prescription claims per year, which represents over 160 million patients tracked across time. IMS Health, IMS National Sales Perspectives™: Retail and Non-Retail
The IMS Health, IMS National Sales Perspectives™ measures the volume of drug products, both prescription and over-the-counter, and selected diagnostic products moving from manufacturers into various outlets within the retail and non-retail markets. Volume is expressed in terms of sales dollars, eaches, extended units, and share of market. These data are based on national projections. Outlets within the retail market include the following pharmacy settings: chain drug stores, independent drug stores, mass merchandisers, food stores, and mail service. Outlets within the non-retail market include clinics, non-federal hospitals, federal facilities, HMOs, long-term care facilities, home health care, and other miscellaneous settings. SDI Physician Drug & Diagnosis Audit (PDDA)
SDI's Physician Drug & Diagnosis Audit (PDDA) is a monthly survey designed to provide descriptive information on the patterns and treatment of diseases encountered in office-based physician practices in the U.S. The survey consists of data collected from approximately 3,100 office-based physicians representing 29 specialties across the United States that report on all patient activity during one typical workday per month. These data may include profiles and trends of diagnoses, patients, drug products mentioned during the office visit and treatment patterns. The data are then projected nationally by physician specialty and region to reflect national prescribing patterns. SDI uses the term "drug uses" to refer to mentions of a drug in association with a diagnosis during an office-based patient visit. This term may be duplicated by the number of diagnosis for which the drug is mentioned. It is important to note that a "drug use" does not necessarily result in prescription being generated. Rather, the term indicates that a given drug was mentioned during an office visit. SDI uses the term "drug occurrences" to refer to the number of times a product has been reported on a patient information form during an office-based patient visit for that period. It is important to note that a "drug occurrence" does not necessarily result in a prescription being generated. A “drug occurrence” can result from a prescription written, a sample given, a recommendation for OTC products, recommendation with sample, a product dispensed or administered in the office, a hospital order, a nursing home order or a combination of these. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
