Nearly half of patients living with dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease will experience agitation during the course of illness.1 In June 2025, expert panel recommendations on identifying and managing agitation in Alzheimer’s dementia were published in Postgraduate Medicine. Learn more about these recommendations as Dr. Charles Turck, Dr. George Grossberg, and Dr. Angela Sanford explore how clinicians can implement them in practice. Dr. Grossberg is the Inaugural Henry and Amelia Nasrallah Endowed Professor as well as the Director of the Division of Geriatric Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience at the Saint Louis University School of Medicine. Dr. Sanford is a Professor in the Division of Geriatric Medicine in the Department of Internal Medicine at the Saint Louis University School of Medicine. Drs. Grossberg and Sanford are paid consultants of Otsuka Pharmaceutical Development & Commercialization, Inc.
