Nearly all older adults use medications and dietary supplements, with about half taking 5 or more medications. Used appropriately, medications can improve health and quality of life, prevent disease and prolong life. However, they can also cause medication-related problems, including side effects, drug interactions, ineffectiveness and dependence. All health care providers have a role in promoting rational medication use, and ensuring the best outcomes from drug therapy. This educational workshop will examine issues relating to medication use by older adults, and provide ideas on how to empower patients and families to promote rational use of medications and dietary supplements.
