More and more physicians are initiating \u201cdeprescribing\u201d discussions with their older patients. \u201cDeprescribing\u201d is exactly as it sounds \u2014 the deliberate and conscientious stopping or reducing of prescriptions to help improve health outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>Some long-term care facilities are now required to do periodic medication reviews and weed out unnecessary, ineffective or hazardous pills. The\u00a0recent massive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thestar.com\/news\/canada\/2016\/05\/16\/nursing-homes-urged-to-rethink-drugging-people-with-dementia.html\">Canadian Foundation for Healthcare Improvement <\/a>demonstration project has shown how to\u00a0reduce the inappropriate prescribing of antipsychotic medications to seniors with dementia.<\/p>\n<p>Programs, research initiatives and physician-education activities on deprescribing are being carried out in most provinces. The <a href=\"https:\/\/deprescribing.org\/\">Deprescribing Network<\/a> is developing tools and information to help make deprescribing commonplace and part of the prescribing culture.<\/p>\n<p>This is all a step in the right direction.\u00a0 Unfortunately, there\u2019s still reluctance in some quarters to cut back on medications.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3694945\/\">Some health-care providers<\/a> become nervous when they initiate deprescribing activities, worried that they are reducing medications that specialists or other doctors have ordered.\u00a0 As well, publicly funded \u201cmedication reviews\u201d that are conducted by pharmacists can be flawed, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/news\/health\/medication-reviews-may-miss-patients-who-need-them-1.3005870\">CBC Marketplace investigation<\/a> has found.\u00a0 Some reviews may be motivated by finance, resulting in more, not fewer pills for patients. The same report noted that even when done properly, medication reviews often miss the very patients who would benefit most from a review, such as the elderly or people on a high number of medications.<\/p>\n<p>More than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4239968\/\">90 percent of seniors<\/a> say they want to reduce their medications, if a doctor suggests it.\u00a0 And who can blame them?\u00a0 No one wants to be on an expensive medication that has possible side effects and risks, if they don\u2019t absolutely require the drug.<\/p>\n<p>So what should be done?<\/p>\n<p>Consumer-oriented literature on medicine tends to focus on \u201cadherence\u201d to and \u201ccompliance\u201d with medications, and not on more appropriate drug treatment.\u00a0 And don\u2019t forget that pharmaceutical manufacturers have a business incentive to increase volume, and they are not rewarded for appropriateness of prescribing.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, the Canadian Deprescribing Network has identified a few areas in which the harm of drugs often exceeds the benefits. These include, but are not limited to, benzodiazepines and other sedative medication (commonly prescribed for sleeping), proton pump inhibitors (to treat ulcers and heartburn) and sulphonylureas (to treat type-II diabetes).<\/p>\n<p>Drugs that can be problematic in combination with other medications include those that treat blood pressure and glucose. With these medications, high doses of multiple medications can lead to problems.\u00a0 They also flag the over-use of blood thinners, which require appropriate monitoring.\u00a0 According to the network, these are good places to start when you consult with your doctor.<\/p>\n<p>If you do want to join the deprescribing revolution, <em>don\u2019t do it by yourself.<\/em>\u00a0 Have a conversation with your doctor or pharmacist, who will be able to help you decide whether you are on the appropriate medications, which medications could be safely reduced or eliminated, and how to reduce or eliminate medications.<\/p>\n<p>As people age they should be constantly asking whether a new medication is going to affect the things that are important to them: their mobility, cognitive abilities and ability to enjoy life.<\/p>\n<p>Caregivers and, most importantly, seniors, have to be ready to assert their wishes when it comes to taking too many medications, and they should always be alert to the possibility that more medication might mean more problems.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Do you have something to say about the article you just read?
