Medication for the Elderly

Dr. Brenda Daniels, Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine Physician with Baptist Health South Florida, says the time it takes for your body to process a medication might change as you age. It is important that older adults talk to their doctor about all drugs they take and their side effects, ask questions about the medicines, follow directions, and not forget to take their medicines.
