Description
Potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) are considered higher-risk medications in geriatrics and should be prescribed rarely and with a special cautiousness in older patients. The aim of our study was to clarify for how many PIMs geriatric dosing is stated in official drug information sources (searched between March-May 2019) using AIFA website (Agenzia Italiana Farmaco), BNF (British National Formulary) and US PDR (US Prescriber’s Drug Reference). This information was searched for all SPCs of PIMs (original drug products).
