+.SH "NAME"
+DROP_OWNED \- remove database objects owned by a database role
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+.nf
+DROP OWNED BY { \fIname\fR | CURRENT_ROLE | CURRENT_USER | SESSION_USER } [, \&.\&.\&.] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]
+.fi
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBDROP OWNED\fR
+drops all the objects within the current database that are owned by one of the specified roles\&. Any privileges granted to the given roles on objects in the current database or on shared objects (databases, tablespaces, configuration parameters) will also be revoked\&.
+.SH "PARAMETERS"
+.PP
+\fIname\fR
+.RS 4
+The name of a role whose objects will be dropped, and whose privileges will be revoked\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+CASCADE
+.RS 4
+Automatically drop objects that depend on the affected objects, and in turn all objects that depend on those objects (see
+Section\ \&5.14)\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+RESTRICT
+.RS 4
+Refuse to drop the objects owned by a role if any other database objects depend on one of the affected objects\&. This is the default\&.
+.RE
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+\fBDROP OWNED\fR
+is often used to prepare for the removal of one or more roles\&. Because
+\fBDROP OWNED\fR
+only affects the objects in the current database, it is usually necessary to execute this command in each database that contains objects owned by a role that is to be removed\&.
+.PP
+Using the
+CASCADE
+option might make the command recurse to objects owned by other users\&.
+.PP
+The
+\fBREASSIGN OWNED\fR
+command is an alternative that reassigns the ownership of all the database objects owned by one or more roles\&. However,
+\fBREASSIGN OWNED\fR
+does not deal with privileges for other objects\&.
+.PP
+Databases and tablespaces owned by the role(s) will not be removed\&.
+.PP
+See
+Section\ \&22.4
+for more discussion\&.
+.SH "COMPATIBILITY"
+.PP
+The
+\fBDROP OWNED\fR
+command is a
+PostgreSQL
+extension\&.
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+REASSIGN OWNED (\fBREASSIGN_OWNED\fR(7)), DROP ROLE (\fBDROP_ROLE\fR(7))
