Background: Accumulating evidence supports the efficacy of antipsychotics in patients with delirium. However, extrapyramidal symptoms caused by antipsychotic medications represent a major concern in the pharmacotherapy of delirium, meaning that therapeutic alternatives using drugs other than antipsychotics are required. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and tolerability of trazodone monotherapy with ramelteon and trazodone combination therapy for the management of the symptoms of delirium.
