In this article, the authors review the use of a variety of first-generation antipsychotic drugs, second-generation antipsychotic agents, and benzodiazepines for treatment of acute agitation, and propose specific guidelines for treatment of agitation associated with a variety of conditions, including acute intoxication, psychiatric illness, delirium, and multifocal or idiopathic causes. Pharmacologic treatment of agitation should be based on an assessment of the most likely cause for the agitation. If agitation results from a medical condition or delirium, clinicians should first attempt to treat this underlying eScholarship provides open access, scholarly publishing services to the University of California and delivers a dynamic research platform to scholars worldwide.

Psychotic Apatients might be unable to provide a history or par- ticipate in treatment if they are agitated, hostile, or violent. An appropriate workup may reveal the etiology of the psychosis; secondary causes, such as medical illness and substance use, are prevalent in the emergency room (ER) setting. If the pa- tient has an underlying primary psychotic disorder, such as schizophrenia or mania, illness-specific intervention will help acutely and long-term.
