Abstract

These medications have new receptor binding patterns, good efficacy about negative symptoms, and decreased extrapyramidal symptoms, and their usage in the elderly has been growing steadily in recent years. However, due to worries about their safety in older dementia patients as well as potential hazards for stroke and sudden death, both conventional and atypical antipsychotics have been the subject of intense debate in recent years. The terms old, atypical antipsychotics, usage, schizophrenia, psychosis, mood disorders, dementia, behavioural problems, and adverse events were entered into the MEDLINE search engine. Also taken into account were certain personal studies. This study examines the receptor binding patterns and primary mechanisms of action of these medications, as well as their primary applications in psychiatry and potential side effects in senior patients.
