Quetiapine-associated pancreatitis in a geriatric critical care patient with delirium.

Abstract
We report the case of a 78-year-old male who developed acute pancreatitis related to quetiapine that was administered for the treatment of delirium. No evidence of hypertriglyceridemia, infection, ischemia, chololithiasis or hypercalcemia could be documented.Clinicians should be alerted when treating critical care patients with antipsychotics, as risks might present and potentially lead to hazardous results.
