abstract="AIM: To optimize the treatment of dysphoriain children and adolescents in regard to sex and disease severity.  MATERIAL AND METHODS: Seventy children and adolescents (boys - 45, girls - 25), aged from 6 to 18 years, with different forms of epilepsy and emotion and dysphoric disturbances were studied using CPRS and GCI scales Depending on dysphoria severity, patients were stratified into three groups: mild (n=19 (27.1%), moderate (n=27 (38.6%)) and severe (n=24 (34.3%)).  RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Dysphoric disorders were significantly more prevalent in boys, hostility and aggression were characteristic of boys as well. These facts impacted treatment options. Neuroleptics were more frequently used in boys (35.5%) compared to girls(16%).  Mild dysphoria didn't require additional treatment besides AED in 78,4%. In 75% cases of moderate dysphoria, systemic treatment with neuroleptics for 6 months was necessary. One-time recommendations for neuroleptic treatment were made in all three groups with the prevalence in a group of children with severe and moderate dysphoria.<p /> <p>Language: ru</p>",
