This article in Family Practice Management begins with a patient case followed by a discussion on polypharmacy and a four-part deprescribing process. The patient case is then revisited applying deprescribing in four steps: (1) review all current medications, (2) identify inappropriate, unnecessary or harmful medications, (3) plan deprescribing with the patient, and (4) regularly re-review medications.
