What are the rates and associated patient characteristics of discontinuation of antipsychotic medications (APMs) among older adults following infection-related hospitalization? In this cohort study of 5835 patients in the US, we observed discontinuation rates of only 11% for new atypical APM users and 52% for new haloperidol users by 30 days after initiation following infection-related hospitalization. Dementia and prolonged hospitalization were inversely associated with haloperidol and atypical APM discontinuation. These findings suggest that contrary to clinical recommendations, APM discontinuation rates following infection-related hospitalization are low and are lower for atypical APMs than for haloperidol. This cohort study assesses antipsychotic medication use among older US adults, including rates of and patient characteristics associated with discontinuation, following infection-related hospitalization. There are limited data on discontinuation rates of antipsychotic medications (APMs) used to treat delirium due to acute hospitalization in the routine care of older adults. To investigate discontinuation rates and patient characteristics of APMs used to treat delirium following infection-related hospitalization among older US adults. This retrospective cohort study was conducted using US claims data (Optum’s deidentified Clinformatics Data Mart database) for January 1, 2004, to May 31, 2022. Patients were aged 65 years or older without prior psychiatric disorders and had newly initiated an APM prescription within 30 days of an infection-related hospitalization. Statistical analysis was performed on December 15, 2022. New use (no prior use any time before cohort entry) of oral haloperidol and atypical APMs (aripiprazole, olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone, etc). The primary outcome was APM discontinuation, defined as a gap of more than 15 days following the end of an APM dispensing. Survival analyses and Kaplan-Meier analyses were used. Our study population included 5835 patients. Of these individuals, 790 (13.5%) were new haloperidol users (mean [SD] age, 81.5 [6.7] years; 422 women [53.4%]) and 5045 (86.5%) were new atypical APM users (mean [SD] age, 79.8 [7.0] years; 2636 women [52.2%]). The cumulative incidence of discontinuation by 30 days after initiation was 11.4% (95% CI, 10.4%-12.3%) among atypical APM users and 52.1% (95% CI, 48.2%-55.7%) among haloperidol users (P < .001 for difference between haloperidol vs atypical APMs). We observed an increasing trend in discontinuation rates from 2004 to 2022 (5% increase [95% CI, 3%-7%] per year) for haloperidol users (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.05 [1.03-1.07]; P < .001) but not for atypical APM users (1.00 [0.99-1.01]; P = .67). Prolonged hospitalization and dementia were inversely associated with the discontinuation of haloperidol and atypical APMs. The findings of this cohort study suggest that the discontinuation rate of newly initiated APMs for delirium following infection-related hospitalization was lower in atypical APM users than in haloperidol users, with prolonged hospitalization and dementia as major associated variables. The discontinuation rate was substantially higher in recent years for haloperidol but not for atypical APMs.
