Synopsis "The Polypharmacy and Deprescribing Handbook: Safe Medical Management in Older Adults"

When a longer medication list raises more questions than answers, where should your review begin? THE POLYPHARMACY AND DEPRESCRIBING HANDBOOK: Safe Medical Management in Older Adults provides a structured approach to evaluating medicines in the context of aging, function, treatment goals, and everyday life. Written for clinicians, pharmacists, nurses, and health-professions students, this handbook connects medication history with clinical reasoning, shared decisions, and accountable follow-up. Across 18 chapters, explore how to: Build the best possible medication history, including nonprescription products. Recognize adverse effects, prescribing cascades, and cumulative medication burden. Weigh current indications, benefit, harm, and patient priorities. Understand supervised deprescribing, withdrawal risk, and individualized monitoring. Review major medicine classes alongside kidney function, frailty, cognition, and falls. Strengthen reconciliation, documentation, and responsibility across care transitions. Clinical scenarios, practice photographs, review tables, and reference appendices bring complex decisions into focus. The emphasis is on thoughtful assessment: preserving useful treatment, identifying unnecessary burden, and planning changes with clinical oversight. Develop a clearer framework for asking what each medicine contributes, what may have changed, and how the team will evaluate the outcome. Add this handbook to your reference collection today.
