Dementia is common in Parkinson disease (PD), but there is little data on dementia treatment patterns or the concomitant use of cholinesterase inhibitors (ACHEI) and anticholinergic medications (ACH), a frank prescribing error. To determine the prevalence of dementia treatment and to quantify and characterize inappropriate administration of a high-potency ACH (ACHhigh) drug and an ACHEI among persons with PD. This cross-sectional analysis included participants in the U.S. Medicare Prescription Program in 2014 diagnosed with Parkinson Disease. Our primary outcomes were (1) prescription fill for a dementia drug (2) concomitant prescription fills for an ACHEI and an ACHhigh drug. Descriptive analyses and multivariable logistic regression models determined the extent to which patient characteristics and comorbid conditions were associated with dementia treatment or with an ACHhigh-ACHEI event. 268,407 Medicare beneficiaries diagnosed with PD met inclusion criteria; 73,093 (27.2%) were prescribed at least one anti-dementia medication. The commonest medication was donepezil (n=46,027; 63.0% of users) followed by memantine (n=30,578, 41.8%), rivastigmine (n=19,278, 26.4%). Compared to whites, dementia medications were more likely to be prescribed to Blacks (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 1.33, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.28–1.38) and Hispanics (AOR 1.28, 95%CI 1.22–1.35) and less likely to be prescribed to Native Americans (AOR 0.62, 95%CI 0.51–0.74). Women were less likely to be prescribed a dementia medication (AOR 0.85, 95%CI 0.84–0.87, compared to men). Of the 64,017 PD patients receiving an ACHEI, 44.5% (n=28,495) had at least one ACHhigh-ACHEI event. Hispanics (AOR 1.11, 95%CI 1.00–1.23) and women (AOR 1.30, 95%CI 1.25–1.35) had greater odds of this ‘never event’. There was statistically significant clustering in the prevalence of this prescribing error (Moran’s I = 0.24; p < 0.001), with clusters of high ACHhigh-ACHEI prevalence in the Southern and Midwestern United States. Dementia medication use varies by race and sex among persons with PD. Potentially inappropriate prescribing is common among PD patients being treated for cognitive impairment, and varies substantially by race, sex and geography. These data provide national and local targets for improving care quality and outcomes for persons with PD.
