The Prescribing CascadeThe Prescribing Cascade
Metoclopramide
Extrapyramidal Effects
Levodopa Rx
There are numerous examples of the prescribing cascade in the medical literature.
For example, it has been observed that patients prescribed metoclopramide ( a gastric motility agent) are more likely to be initiated on treatments generally reserved for the management of idiopathic Parkinson’s Disease (e.g. Drugs containing Levodopa).
In this case, metoclopramide use can lead to extrapyramidal symptoms, which may be misdiagnosed as Parkinson’s Disease.
Avorn J et al, JAMA 1995
NSAID Rx
Antihypertensive Rx
Blood Pressure
The Prescribing CascadeThe Prescribing CascadeAnother example relates to the fact that older persons who have been prescribed NSAIDs appear to be at increased risk for being initiated on antihypertensive therapy.
In this case, NSAID use increases blood pressure leading to the need for blood pressure lowering therapy.
In both examples, the initiation of new drug treatments in older persons could have been avoided if there was recognition of the risks of certain drug treatments (e.g. metoclopramide and NSAIDs) in elderly patients.
