What is Polypharmacy_

Polypharmacy is a word used to describe the intake of five or more medications by a patient. Excessive polypharmacy refers to the use of 10 or more drugs. Polypharmacy is often used in geriatric care since most older people suffer from multiple chronic conditions like sugar, high blood pressure, etc. People might suffer adverse effects due to polypharmacy, and for more details, you can consult with your nearest geriatrician (use search options like "geriatrician near me" to find one).<br>
