Safe Medication Use for Older Adults with CVD

Description

Safe medication use in older adults with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is crucial due to their increased vulnerability to adverse drug reactions and complications. Age-related changes, such as decreased kidney and liver function, can alter drug metabolism and raise the risk of toxicity. Additionally, managing multiple chronic conditions and medications increases the potential for harmful interactions. Ensuring safe medication use prevents these risks, enhances treatment efficacy, and improves overall health outcomes. This program will offer participants valuable insights into safe medication use for older adults with CVD, helping them adopt best practices to enhance patient outcomes.
