| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to investigate the actual practice of decreasing drugs of old patients, 158 old inpatients (mean age (SD) 82.4 (6.7) y.o., male 46.5%) were enrolled. The number of drugs (mean (SD)) was 6.7 (4.3) on admission, and 6.1 (4.0) at discharge, and decrease in the number of drugs was observed in 34.1% of the patients. On multiple logistic regression analysis, male, low BMI, needs of care, and polypharmacy (drugs 6 or more) were associated with the patients whose drugs were decreased. Adverse drug reactions were observed in 11.1％ of the patients. however, the decrease of drugs was not associated with the adverse drug reactions. Therefore, it seems that the physicians are reviewing the drugs during the admission and have been controlling the prescription very carefully, especially male, dependent, and polypharmacy patients.
