ABSTRACT
Population aging has become a global phenomenon. The aging population is in grim situation, and chronic disease prevalence rate is very high in China. In addition, the demand growth for medical service results in more home medication treatment. Therefore, drug undeserved risk for elderly patients also increases, which need more attention. In this paper, the problem of improper use of drugs for elderly people was investigated and analyzed, which could provide a reference for regulating the elderly family medication and reducing the risk of drug use. The questionnaire survey was conducted among 120 elderly people, and 83 of them were followed up. The elderly population in the family is not with standardized medication, over 60% of the elderly have strong randomness, inappropriate medication and safety hazards. Statistic difference existed between drug with long and short time for safety evaluation and. Irrational drug use can increase the adverse effects of drugs, which can cause some damage to the elderly health, and even increase the risk of death.
