It’s #MedsAwareWeek – a timely reminder of the importance of #deprescribing and safer medicines use. With 40% of Australians aged over 75 years taking 5+ medicines, the risks from medicine-related harm are significant. At #NMS24, experts highlighted the importance of clinician-led #deprescribing conversations, shared decision-making, and multidisciplinary collaboration to address inappropriate polypharmacy. Watch Session 2 from #NMS24 for insights on deprescribing and how clinicians can integrate deprescribing into routine care. https://ow.ly/eGEs50Vcofx

A great read in MJA InSight+ today on the pressing challenge of deprescribing medicines 💊 as our population ages. The article is by the Commission's Clinical Director Associate Professor Liz Marles with pharmacists Alaa Qassim and Sankit Lalseta, and President of The RACP, Professor Jennifer Martin. The authors explain why we must evolve how we manage medicines and prescribe for older adults, and offer strategies to support the core prescribing principles for older patients. #deprescribing #NMS24 https://ow.ly/zvXq50VeuMG Medical Journal of Australia The Royal Australasian College of Physicians Jennifer Martin Liz Marles Alaa Qassim Sankit Lalseta
