“…[36] Because of the advantage on a lower incidence rate of AEs, atypical antipsychotics have been more widely used than typical ones. [4,37,38] There was a systematic review reported that atypical antipsychotics including olanzapine and risperidone were effective in treatment of BPSD comparing to placebo. However, quetiapine was not considered effective in that pooled analysis.…”

Objectives: Olanzapine and risperidone have emerged as the most widely used drugs as short-term prescription in the treatment of behavioral disturbances in dementia. The present systematic review and meta-analysis was hence performed to investigate the effectiveness and safety profile of olanzapine and risperidone in the treatment of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), aiming to provide updated suggestion for clinical physicians and caregivers. Design: Prospective controlled clinical studies were included, of which available data was extracted. Outcomes of BEHAVE-AD scores with the variation of grades, specific behaviors variables, as well as safety signals were pooled for the analysis by odds rates and weighted mean differences, respectively. Data sources: Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and WanFang. Eligibility criteria: Prospective, controlled clinical studies, conducted to compare the effectiveness and safety profile of olanzapine and risperidone in the treatment of BPSD. Data extraction and synthesis: Interested data including baseline characteristics and necessary outcomes from the included studies were extracted independently by 2 investigators. BEHAVE-AD scale was adopted to assess the efficacy in the present study. All behaviors were evaluated at the time of the initiation of the treatment, as well as the completion of drugs courses. Adverse events were assessed with the criteria of Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale, or Coding Symbols for a Thesaurus of Adverse Reaction Terms dictionary. Weighted mean difference was used for the pooled analysis. Results: A total of 2427 participants were included in the present meta-analysis. Comparative OR on response rate, and remarkable response rate between olanzapine and risperidone was 0.65 (95% CI: 0.51–0.84; P = .0008), and 0.62 (95% CI: 0.50–0.78; P < .0001), respectively. There were statistical differences observed by olanzapine on the improvement of variables including delusions (WMD, −1.83, 95% CI, −3.20, −0.47), and nighttime behavior disturbances (WMD, −1.99, 95% CI, −3.60, −0.38) when compared to risperidone. Conclusion: Our results suggested that olanzapine might be statistically superior to risperidone on the reduction of BPSD of Alzheimer’s disease, especially in the relief of delusions and nighttime behavior disturbances. In addition, olanzapine was shown statistically lower risks of agitation, sleep disturbance, and extrapyramidal signs.
