Update of Studies on Drug‐Related Problems in Older Adults

Medications, when used correctly in older adults, can maintain or improve quality of life. Unfortunately, medications are commonly used incorrectly in older adults, resulting in medication errors, adverse drug events (ADEs), poor quality of life, and mortality. To provide optimal care for older adults, it is necessary to keep abreast of the current literature on drug-related problems. The literature on drug-related problems is challenging to search and discover because these problems do not fit under discrete, easily searchable terms, as specific diseases do. To aid in the task of staying up to date on drug-related problems in older adults, in 2000, a summary of the recent literature was published using multiple techniques to find the most important articles.1 For the next decade, the editors of the American Journal of Geriatric Pharmacotherapy (JTH, KES) continued to publish a summary of this literature each year. Because the last issue of that journal was published in December 2012, the editor of the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society has generously agreed to continue this tradition and publish this popular review. We hope that you enjoy it.
