Annotation | The older population is at greatest risk for medication-related problems because of age-related physical changes, the higher incidence of multiple chronic diseases and conditions, and the greater number of prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) medications they consume. This issue of "Generations" includes articles on what older people and gerontologists should know about current use of medication, related problems, new drugs, financing and care. (RH). |
