Individual site and regional pooled proportional meta-analyses with generalized linear mixed methods were conducted to identify prescription patterns.<h4>Results</h4>This study included 10,351 individuals from North America (n = 3985), Europe (n = 3822), and Australia (n = 2544). Overall, participants were predominantly female (60%) with BD-I (60%; vs.Bipolar disordersPatterns of pharmacotherapy for bipolar disorder: A GBC survey.PMC10794603R01MH100125R01 MH100125Millett CEPham DGodin ODubertret CSamalin LYocum AKHaffen EPeters ATVieta EStrawbridge RCoombes BJYoung AHOlie EBurdick KETso IFAndreassen OAAndreazza ACZandi PPBiernacka JMAubin VNierenberg AAFullerton JMFico GLeboyer MVerdolini NSchwan RKeramatian KFrye MAYatham LNSingh BSperry SHGard SBerk MMitchell PBBelzeaux REtain BWilliams LJFACE-BD Collaborators, The Global Bipolar Cohort CollaborativeAshton MMPasserieux COvers BJPolosan MMcInnis MGRoberts GfalsePatterns of pharmacotherapy for bipolar disorder: A GBC survey.<h4>Objectives</h4>To understand treatment practices for bipolar disorders (BD), this study leveraged the Global Bipolar Cohort collaborative network to investigate pharmacotherapeutic treatment patterns in multiple cohorts of well-characterized individuals with BD in North America, Europe, and Australia.<h4>Methods</h4>Data on pharmacotherapy, demographics, diagnostic subtypes, and comorbidities were provided from each participating cohort.
