Medicines and Age | Aging Matters | NPT
The medicine we took when we were twenty, may not work the same when we are 60. Age changes the way medications are absorbed, processed and affects how long they stay in the body, which can lead to problems. Consult your primary care provider about any medication concerns you may have and keep an up to date list of all the medications you are taking.
