description Objectives: To estimate prevalence of physical activity and its associations with various psychiatric disorders and the use of psychotropic medications. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was carried out between July 2012 and June 2014. Patients were enrolled from a number of hospitals located in 5 regions of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Results: A total of 1185 patients were included in current analysis: 796 were outpatients, and 389 were inpatients. Out of 1,185 patients, 153 (12.9%) were physically active. Much higher rates of physical activity were reported among males than females (15.9% versus 9.6%, p

Much higher rates of physical activity were reported among males than females (15.9% versus 9.6%, p&lt;0.001). According to the univariate analysis, higher rates of physical activity were positively correlated with primary bipolar disorders, the use of antianxiety medications and, to a lesser extent, use of antipsychotic medications, but they were negatively correlated with primary anxiety disorders, use of antidepressant medications, and use of multiple psychotropic medications. The associations between physical activity and primary bipolar disorders (odds ratio [OR]=2.47, p=0.002), use of antianxiety medications (OR=3.58, p=0.003), and use of multiple psychotropic medications (OR=0.33, p&lt;0.001) remained significant after adjusting for demographic and clinical characteristics. Conclusion: We report a variable but generally low prevalence of physical activity among a large, mixed sample of psychiatric patients in Saudi Arabia. These findings may highlight the importance of assessing physical activity status of psychiatric patients and the critical need for physical activity promotion programs among this group of disadvantaged patients.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0379-5284</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1658-3175</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.15537/smj.2018.4.21796</identifier><identifier>PMID: 29619493</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Riyadh: Prince Sultan Military Medical City (PSMMC)</publisher><subject>Exercise ; Original</subject><ispartof>Saudi medical journal, 2018-04, Vol.39 (4), p.401-411</ispartof><rights>Saudi Medical Journal 2018.
