This is a patient case exploring the importance of evaluating herbal and dietary supplements and how they may impact drug-drug and drug-gene implications based on pharmacogenomics test results. Even though herbal supplements are considered natural by many patients, which is often the reason for starting them, herbal supplements may still be metabolized by the same pathways as other medications, potentially contributing to drug-drug, drug-herb, and drug-gene interactions, and therefore, potentially impacting a patient’s response to medications.

Delirium is a syndrome that can arise from many causes or underlying conditions, and though it has been reported in younger patients, it is more prevalent in older people, though it can occur in other age groups as well. Identifying delirium is challenging in older people because of the coexistence of underlying dementia or depression, which may further complicate the presentation. Drug-induced delirium is one of the major causes of delirium, and evaluation of this potential cause or contribution is an important component of the evaluation process, since it can lead to poor patient outcomes. Part one of this three part series reviewed the epidemiology, pathophysiology, evaluation, diagnostic process, and causes of delirium in older people, with a focus on the pharmacological causes. Part two of this series continues to review drugs and drug classes that can cause or contribute to delirium in older people.

Inpatient falls continue to have detrimental effects on patient care and recovery.
