Sponsor's own description

The elderly population today relies heavily on medication consumption. While there are cases where using multiple medications is necessary and reasonable, it also increases the risk of inappropriate treatment and adverse drug effects. This randomized, controlled trial aims to examine the effectiveness of incorporating drug reviews as an integral part of clinical practice for older patients admitted to a Municipal in-patient acute care (MipAC) unit in Oslo, Norway. The intervention involves a clinical drug review conducted by a MipAC physician under the guidance of a geriatrician, followed by a telephone consultation between the MipAC physician and the patient's family physician (FP). The primary outcome measure is health-related quality of life, while secondary outcome measures include physical and cognitive function, dry mouth, hospital admissions, and survival. The environmental impact of the study intervention will also be assessed and compared to usual care.
