Every medication comes with benefits and risks. Aging can increase those risks as we take more meds and our bodies change how we metabolize them. Join Dr. Vincent Vuong – clinical pharmacist and researcher – for a discussion about medication overload, prescribing cascades and how deprescribing might change your life for the better. He will also discuss how to talk with your providers about deprescribing and about deprescribing resources available to you.
