Implication

Systematic review reports medication management reduces polypharmacy-related risks in older adults, highlighting the need for a multidisciplinary approach.

Key Points

  • Medication management interventions significantly decrease the number of medications and potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) for older adults.
  • Out of 14 studies, 10 reported reduced medication counts, indicating effective drug management strategies.
  • These interventions focus on multidisciplinary collaboration among healthcare professionals to optimize medication safety.
  • Challenges such as resource intensity hinder broader implementation of these essential interventions.
