简介
Background
Inappropriate polypharmacy is a particular concern in older people and is associated with negative health outcomes. Choosing the best interventions to improve appropriate polypharmacy is a priority, hence interest in appropriate polypharmacy, where many medicines may be used to achieve better clinical outcomes for patients, is growing. This is the second update of this Cochrane Review.
Objectives
To determine which interventions, alone or in combination, are effective in improving the appropriate use of polypharmacy and reducing medication‐related problems in older people.
