Drug interactions, geriatric patient, polypharmacyAbstract
The patients of the third age make up the most medicated age group in society, mainly due to the increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases, therefore they are more likely to present drug interactions due to other factors dependent on the state of their organism, they present three main characteristics that differentiate it from other age groups: polypathology, polypharmacy and physiological changes related to aging that alter the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of medications.
