Topic: Boosters and Beyond: Holistic Dementia Care & Antipsychotic Drug Reduction: Deep Dive – Newer Antipsychotics

Description: Nursing home providers should familiarize themselves with newer antipsychotics that are now on the market. Generally speaking atypical antipsychotics are somewhat safer than typical (older generation) antipsychotics although still unsafe. How do newer antipsychotic medications fair? Should we rely on these medications if an antipsychotic is deemed to be necessary? In this session, we will:

  • List the risks and benefits of newer antipsychotic medications.
  • Describe side effect profiles in comparison to older atypical antipsychotics.
  • Describe any potential superiority over older antipsychotics.
