The geriatric population is arbitrarily defined as comprising subjects 65 years or older. The older the population likely to use the drug, the more important it is to include the older age range, 75 years and older. For drugs used to treat diseases not unique to, but present in, the elderly, a minimum of 100 subjects usually would allow detection of clinically important differences between the elderly and younger subjects with respect to efficacy as well as adverse reactions. [Pg.252]

Polypharmacy is the taking of numerous dru that can potentially react witli one anotlier. When practiced by tlie elderly, polypharmacy leads to an increase in tlie number of potential adverse reactions. Although multiple drug therapy is nec saiy to treat certain disease stat, it always increases the possibility of adverse reactions. The nurse needs good assessment skills to detect any problems when monitoring the geriatric patient s response to drug therapy. [Pg.11]
