Effectiveness of a Joint General Practitioner-Pharmacist Intervention on Benzodiazepine Deprescribing in the Elderly

BESTOPH-MG
Start date: March 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Benzodiazepines or related drug (BZDR) are consumed for hypnotic or anxiolytic purposes in most cases. The consequences of BZDR are multiple with an increased risk of daytime sedation, balance disorders leading to falls and fractures, cognitive disorders, road accidents and dementia. Given their comorbidities, physiological changes, and multiple medications, the elderly are more at risk of suffering from BZDR adverse events. Interprofessional collaboration has shown efficacy in improving prescribing appropriateness and may affect patients outcomes positively. Morever, motivational interviews (MI) may reduce the extent of substance abuse compared to no intervention.
