Iatrogenic Drug Risk in People Over 75, With or Without Cognitive Disorders, From an Inventory of Their Family Pharmacy

Overview

Many hospitalizations or emergency room visits are due to problems of iatrogenic medication, especially in elderly patients who are very often polymedicated. Moreover, they are more at risk because of fragility. This has an important socio-economic impact. It therefore seems important to act upstream of these adverse events and a review of the drugs available in the homes of elderly patients seems a good starting point.
