Financial Conflicts of Interest
As faculty of Weill Cornell Medical College we are committed to providing transparency for any and all external relationships prior to giving an academic presentation.
I do not have an interest in any commercial products or services—Robert Kelly, MD

Case I
68-year-old female BIB police after calling 911Believes objects stolen from home
Sudden debut of sx in early morning hours
Says she saw numerous animals and people in home
Much anxiety
BP 145/90, HR 100, T 97.6
H/o mild memory impairment, worsening over time
Current medicationssimvastatin 20 mg QHS
amlodipine 5 mg QAM
ibuprofen 400 mg TID
chlorpromazine 50 mg, prn for sleep

Case II
Syncope in 70yo woman with DementiaAdmitted due to behavioral disturbance
Medications upon admission:
metoprolol 50 BID for HTN
Tylenol 650 mg prn for pain
Tx with Haldol 1 mg BID for psychosis
Three days later added Cymbalta 30 mg BID
Three days after that passed out while walking in the lounge area

Adverse Drug Reactions in the Nursing Home
• Psychoactive medications (antipsychotics, antidepressants, and sedatives/hypnotics) and anticoagulants were the medications most often associated with preventable ADRs

Clinical Dilemma
• Number of possible drug interactions too large to memorize
• Difficult to determine which interactions are important

Pharmacokinetic Issues in BP Elders
• Reduced renal clearance of some drugs, e.g lithium;• Decreased volume of distribution for hydrophilic drugs,
e.g. lithium;• Changes in plasma binding proteins, e.g. lower albumin
conc.; proportion of non bound valproate is increased; • Changes in effective drug concentration/dose may have
clinical meaning for benefit/toxicity: lithium- lower doses and longer time to steady state
![Page 37: Robert Kelly, MD Assistant Professor of Psychiatry Weill Cornell Medical College White Plains, New York Drug-Drug Interactions Lecture available at](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551b725a550346a10a8b4a12/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Pharmacodynamics in Aged
• Older BP patients may be slow to improve- duration of adequate treatment trial not clear;
• Optimal doses/concentrations not defined; • Some patients respond to low
concentrations, e.g. of lithium. • Patients with dementia, and mild cognitive
impairments, may have slower/attenuated benefit and greater neurocognitive side effects.
![Page 38: Robert Kelly, MD Assistant Professor of Psychiatry Weill Cornell Medical College White Plains, New York Drug-Drug Interactions Lecture available at](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551b725a550346a10a8b4a12/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Elderly Are More Difficult to Treat Safely
• Pharmacokinetic changes result in higher and more variable drug concentrations
• The elderly often take multiple medications
• Greater sensitivity exists to a given drug concentration
• Homeostatic reserve may be impaired
![Page 39: Robert Kelly, MD Assistant Professor of Psychiatry Weill Cornell Medical College White Plains, New York Drug-Drug Interactions Lecture available at](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551b725a550346a10a8b4a12/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Coping With Drug Interactions
• Anticipation and prevention– Highly potent inducer/inhibitor– Narrow therapeutic index of victim – Victims dependent on one metabolic
enzyme/transport protein
![Page 40: Robert Kelly, MD Assistant Professor of Psychiatry Weill Cornell Medical College White Plains, New York Drug-Drug Interactions Lecture available at](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551b725a550346a10a8b4a12/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Coping With Drug Interactions
• Recognize interaction potential of “nondrugs” (herbals)
• Keep knowledge base current
• Consider interactions whenever the clinical picture unexpectedly changes
