The Research Question How and why do primary care physicians (PCPs) use medications including antipsychotics, as well as non-pharmacologic strategies, for symptoms of dementia?

What the Researchers Did Semi-structured interviews with 26 primary care physicians (PCPs): 16 family medicine, 10 general internal medicine In practice >3years in Northwestern Virginia, USA. Analysis: template, immersion/crystallization, thematic development.

What the Researchers Found PCPs prescribe antipsychotics and other medications for dementia symptoms: To meet meet patient-oriented goals, and Because PCPs see medications as more effective and less dangerous than evidence supports. PCPs need practical verified prescribing guidelines and dissemination of non-pharmacologic strategies which are as affordable, accessible, and efficacious as drugs.

What This Means for Clinical Practice For Symptoms of Dementia: Drug use should have patient-oriented goals in the context of this terminal illness Non-drug treatments are first line and should be employed whenever feasible Discussions with caregivers of patients with dementia should include the benefits and risks of all medications
