What’s In Your Medicine Cabinet?
As we age, it is common to be prescribed multiple medications to control chronic conditions. However, many seniors are taking five or more medications, prescribed by multiple clinicians every day. Known as polypharmacy, this could lead to issues with unintended drug interactions. Join Dr. Jessica Kwon, PharmD, a Doctor of Pharmacy with MemorialCare, as she explains what polypharmacy is and what steps you need to take to ensure your clinicians understand the medications you or your loved one are taking. This class will be held at the Fountain Valley senior center. Seats are limited and prior registration is required.
