We have to inform patients about the expected side effects and indications for requesting a consultation. Specific clinical questions were designed based on the acronym PICOST. The search was made in the specific websites of clinical practice guidelines, was limited to the population of older adults, in English or Spanish. We used 10 related clinical practice guidelines, eight systematic reviews and five meta-analyses. Finally, we made a search of original articles or clinical reviews for specific topics. The development and validation of clinical practice guidelines for \"rational drug prescriptions in the elderly\" is intended to promote an improvement in the quality of prescription through the prevention and detection of inappropriate prescribing in the elderly and, as a result of this, a decrease in the adverse events by drugs, deterioration of health of patients and expenditure of resources.","url":"https:\/\/search.ebscohost.com\/login.aspx?direct=true&db=mdl&AN=23693115&authtype=shib&custid=ns346513&group=main&profile=eds","isPdfLink":true,"isSAML":false,"additionalInfo":{"Authored_By":"Peralta-Pedrero ML, Valdivia-Ibarra FJ, Hern\u00e1ndez-Manzano M, Medina-Beltr\u00e1n GR, Cordero-Guill\u00e9n MA, Baca-Z\u00fa\u00f1iga J, Cruz-Avelar A, Aguilar-Salas I, Avalos-Mej\u00eda AM","Journal_Info":"Publisher: Coordinacio\u0301n de Educacio\u0301n en Salud, Divisio\u0301n de Innovacio\u0301n Educativa Country of Publication: Mexico NLM ID: 101243727 Publication Model: Print Cited Medium: Internet ISSN: 2448-5667 (Electronic) Linking ISSN: 04435117 NLM ISO Abbreviation: Rev Med Inst Mex Seguro Soc Subsets: MEDLINE","Publication_Type":"English Abstract; Journal Article; Practice Guideline; Review","Published_Date":"2013-03-01","Source":"Revista medica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social [Rev Med Inst Mex Seguro Soc] 2013 Mar-Apr; Vol. 51 (2), pp. 228-39.","Languages":"Spanish; Castilian","Electronic_ISSN":"2448-5667","MeSH_Terms":"Polypharmacy*, Drug Prescriptions\/*standards, Aged ; Cardiovascular Diseases\/drug therapy ; Humans ; Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA Reductase Inhibitors\/therapeutic use ; Hypoglycemic Agents\/therapeutic use ; Psychotropic Drugs\/therapeutic use","Subjects":"Aged, Cardiovascular Diseases drug therapy, Humans, Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA Reductase Inhibitors therapeutic use, Hypoglycemic Agents therapeutic use, Psychotropic Drugs therapeutic use, Drug Prescriptions standards, Polypharmacy","Title_Abbreviations":"Revista medica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social","Volume":"51"},"header":{"DbId":"mdl","DbLabel":"MEDLINE Ultimate","An":"23693115","RelevancyScore":"776","PubType":"Academic Journal","PubTypeId":"academicJournal","PreciseRelevancyScore":"775.759704589844"},"plink":"https:\/\/search.ebscohost.com\/login.aspx?direct=true&site=eds-live&db=mdl&AN=23693115&authtype=shib&custid=ns346513&group=main&profile=eds","upload_link":"https:\/\/search.ebscohost.com\/login.aspx?direct=true&site=eds-live&db=mdl&AN=23693115&authtype=shib&custid=ns346513&group=main&profile=eds"}
