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. ANALYSES OF
SEVENTEEN PLACEBO-CONTROLLED TRIALS (MODAL DURATION OF 10 WEEKS),
LARGELY IN PATIENTS TAKING ATYPICAL ANTIPSYCHOTIC DRUGS, REVEALED A
RISK OF
DEATH IN DRUG-TREATED PATIENTS OF BETWEEN 1.6 TO 1.7 TIMES THE RISK OF
DEATH IN PLACEBO-TREATED PATIENTS. OVER THE COURSE OF A TYPICAL
10-WEEK
CONTROLLED TRIAL, THE RATE OF DEATH IN DRUG-TREATED PATIENTS WAS ABOUT
4.5%, COMPARED TO A RATE OF ABOUT 2.6% IN THE PLACEBO GROUP. 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. HALOPERIDOL IS NOT
APPROVED
FOR THE TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH DEMENTIA-RELATED PSYCHOSIS (SEE
WARNINGS).
