Some common medicines in our daily life seems to occur adverse drug reactions. Goodwin (2011) reports that four types of medicines - two for diabetes and two blood-thinning agents- result to two-thirds of drug-related emergency hospitalizations (par. 2). According to the study cases identifying 65 and older, nearly 48 percent of the hospitalizations occurred among adults 80 and up and also nearly 66 percents were of unintentional overdoses (par. 6). The four medicines are cited in different percentage to emergency hospitalizations (par. 7) and different side effects (par.8). Prior research has also found that older adults are nearly seven times more likely than younger people to have an adverse drug event that requires hospitalization (par. 12). Patients and doctors should word together and discuss whether the drug is necessary to prevent serious problems in the future.
