Adults ages 65+: Your medication could be the reason for your new medical condition; read this eye-opening guide to become an expert on what medications you take!

We have a medication problem in America. It is marked not only by excessive use of medications, but by errors in how they are prescribed, monitored, and taken. An estimated nineteen million adults age sixty-five and older take five or more medications daily. These individuals and family caregivers know the frustrations of lengthy medication lists, high drug costs, and frequent questions about the need and value of those medications. All too often, an unrecognized adverse drug effect is mistaken for a new medical condition, or worse, a symptom of getting older. But who stops to question the medications?

Maybe It's Your Medicationstackles these problems by providing information, insider tips, and strategies that empower patients and caregivers to have important conversations about their prescription and nonprescription drugs. This book addresses the questions consumers want to ask about their medications and brings to light other questions they should be asking but may not know how. It is everyone's go-to guide on how to use medications safely on the journey to healthy aging.
