In adults with dementia prescribed oral antipsychotics, do deprescribing interventions increase successful reduction or discontinuation of antipsychotics and improve patient outcomes compared to usual care or continued treatment?
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: No direct evidence for deprescribing interventions in adults with dementia prescribed oral antipsychotics was identified. Limited evidence suggests gradual deprescribing may safely reduce antipsychotic use without worsening patient outcomes, warranting individualised approaches and further research.
