Antipsychotic drugs and risk of falls and fracture (March 2017)

In a large, population-based sample of Finnish people with Alzheimer disease, new users of

antipsychotic medication had an increased risk of hip fractures from the first days of use [3].

Subsequent to multiple similar reports in patients with varied disorders, the US Food and Drug

Administration (FDA) issued a warning that antipsychotic drugs may cause falls and fractures as a

result of somnolence, postural hypotension, and/or motor and sensory instability, and

recommended that a fall risk assessment be completed when initiating antipsychotic treatment and

recurrently for patients continuing on long-term antipsychotics. (See "Second-generation

antipsychotic medications: Pharmacology, administration, and side effects", section on 'Falls'.)
