Sociodemographic, clinical, and pharmacological data were collected. Multivariable logistic regression models examined associations between diagnosis and prescription of any psychotropic medication, specific drug classes, and polypharmacy (\u2265\u00a02 psychotropic classes), adjusting for psychiatric comorbidities while accounting for potential site\u2010related differences in local prescribing practices.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Psychotropic medication use was more frequent among controls in unadjusted analyses. In multivariable models, AN diagnosis was not independently associated with the prescription of any psychotropic medication, antipsychotics, or antidepressants. In contrast, AN group showed a significantly higher likelihood of receiving benzodiazepines (aOR\u00a0=\u00a02.76, 95% CI 1.43\u20135.47) and polypharmacy (aOR\u00a0=\u00a02.37, 95%CI 1.23\u20134.64) compared with controls.

However, benzodiazepine use and higher rates of polypharmacy in AN may reflect disorder\u2010specific clinical features and unmet treatment needs. These findings highlight the complexity of pharmacological management in adolescent AN and the need for more robust, disorder\u2010specific evidence to guide clinical practice.<\/jats:p>\n
