CLINICAL PARTICULARS
WARNING: INCREASED MORTALITY IN ELDERLY PATIENTS WITH DEMENTIA-RELATED
PSYCHOSIS
Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with
antipsychotic drugs are at an increased
risk of death. Although the causes of death were varied, most of the
deaths appeared to be either
cardiovascular (e.g., heart failure, sudden death) or infectious
(e.g., pneumonia) in nature.
Observational studies suggest that, similar to atypical antipsychotic
drugs, treatment with conventional
antipsychotic drugs may increase mortality. The extent to which the
findings of increased mortality in
observational studies may be attributed to the antipsychotic drug as
opposed to some characteristic(s)
of the patients is not clear.
ZYPADHERA
(olanzapine) is not approved for the treatment of patients
