摘要

随着可用的非处方(OTC)产品数量的增加，许多老年人开始将医疗保健掌握在自己手中。特别重要的是，这些产品提供的标签是精确的，导致他们的有效使用，特别是老年人。设计不理想的药物标签会增加老年人消费错误和不良药物相互作用的风险。本研究评估了潜在不适当的非处方药的警告标签是否与基于证据的老年人潜在不适当处方标准一致。美国食品和药物管理局(Food and Drug Administration)未来可能会采取行动，改进标签政策。

Gaps in OTC Labeling: Potentially Inappropriate Medications for Older Adults.

As the number of available over-the-counter (OTC) products increases, many older adults are taking health care into their own hands. It is particularly important that the labeling provided with these products is precise, leading to their effective use, especially by older adults. Suboptimally designed medication labels can increase the risk of consumption errors and adverse drug interactions among seniors. This study evaluated whether the warning labels on potentially inappropriate OTC medications are consistent with evidencebased criteria for potentially inappropriate prescribing in older adults. Future action could be taken by the Food and Drug Administration to improve labeling policies.
