Less is More

16 May 2023

Description

Caring for older adults who suffer from rheumatic disease comes with it the need to manage multimorbidity, polypharmacy, and geriatric syndromes. Often, shifting priorities for those suffering with rheumatic musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs) is needed, sometimes leading to a prescribing cascade. The practice of 'deprescribing', an approach to optimize medication use to deliver a more 'goal-concordant' type of care was the focus of Dr. Una Makris and Dr. Jiha Lee's latest research: "Optimizing Medication Use in Older Adults With Rheumatic Musculoskeletal Diseases: Deprescribing as an Approach When Less May Be More" When caring for older adults with RMDs, it very well may be, that "Less is More".
