Abstract

The prevalence of acute pancreatitis (AP) and mental health disorders (MHDs) are rising. While the association between chronic pancreatitis (CP) and MHDs is established, it is unknown whether there is a risk of MHDs after an index episode of AP. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of MHDs and pharmacotherapy use after an episode of AP.
