Webinar Topic: Polypharmacy and the Elderly
Date: Wednesday, March 17, 2021 | 1:00 pm
Description: Polypharmacy is a common medication management challenge in the elderly population. Adults older than age 65 often have more chronic and acute medical conditions than younger people, so older adults take more medications to treat these many conditions. This, in turn, creates more opportunity for adverse drug reactions (ADRs), drug interactions (DIs) and other MRPs to occur. Dr. Michael J. Schuh, B.S., Pharm.D., MBA, FAPhA, will provide an overview of polypharmacy, including its risk factors and an examination of the associated poor medical outcomes. Each qualified attendee will receive one free CEU credit.
