| Deprescribing |
| While reading an item in the January 11, 2022 Globe and Mail titled “Prescription overload is a serious and growing health issue for seniors”, members of the ADRP were reminded of Dr. David Gardner’s talk at the 2018 CURAC Conference. This talk was titled “Deprescribing: It’s no dream. Sleep well without sleeping pills.” The work of the Deprescribing Network is referenced in the CURAC Bulletin on Medications and Older Persons .
