ABSTRACT
This review covers the latest advances in our understanding of psychosis in the elderly population with respect to diagnosis, epidemiology, and treatment. Major topics of discussion include late life psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and delusional disorder as well as dementia-related psychosis. Clinical differences between early-onset and late-onset disorders are reviewed in terms of prevalence, symptomatology, and approach to treatment. Newly revised research and clinical criteria for dementia-related psychosis are referenced. The evidence base for emerging therapies including citalopram and pimavanserin in relation to conventional therapies such as atypical antipsychotics are discussed..
