To deduce a model rozerem describing physicians' choice of antidepressants for treating elderly nursing home patients. In patients with dementia, Amitriptyline ( Elavil ) prescribing declined whether or not non-psychiatric target sleeping medications symptoms were present, but nortriptyline prescribing did not; nortriptyline was three times more likely than Amitriptyline rozerem ( Elavil ) to be prescribed in the presence of dementia. When non-psychiatric target symptoms were present without depression or dementia, insomnia medicine both Amitriptyline ( Elavil ) and nortriptyline prescribing was increased, but Amitriptyline ( Elavil ) appeared to be the antidepressant of choice. insomnia medication Residents were grouped by dementia and antidepressant target symptoms (depression, or one or more non-psychiatric symptoms, i.e. Reasons for prescribing antidepressants and physicians' diagnoses of depression and dementia were identified by medical record audit.
Insomnia, pain, incontinence, itching). Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) were prescribed preferentially over tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) for treating depression in both demented and non-demented residents, but TCAs were nine times more likely to be prescribed for treating non-psychiatric target symptoms alone. In all subgroups examined, its use was two to five times more prevalent when such symptoms were present.
Antidepressant prescribing in nursing homes. Is there a place for tricyclics?OBJECTIVE. They tend to avoid prescribing anticholinergic TCAs other than nortriptyline when they recognize a patient as demented. The data suggest that physicians employ a decision model for antidepressant prescribing that simultaneously recognizes the utility of TCAs in treating non-psychiatric symptoms and the anticholinergic vulnerability of older, especially demented, patients.
