Summary

This study aimed to understand how older adults think about starting or stopping medications, a process called 'deprescribing.' Researchers surveyed 2,400 adults aged 65 and older in the US and Australia, asking them to react to a hypothetical patient scenario. The goal is to use these insights to help doctors have better conversations with patients about medication safety and preferences.
