Pain Speak

Send us a text

This podcast, generated by Notebook LM based on a presentation I did earlier discusses the importance of deprescribing and provides practical strategies for implementing this process in the context of analgescis and polypharmacy especially in the older population. We explore the principle of deprescribing , the significance of deprescribing and how it can improve quality of life, reduce adverse effects, avoid worsening of diseases, reduce pill burden, and maintain control of chronic conditions. We also explore challenges and barriers in both patients and clinicians around deprescribing and finally the principles of deprescribing effectively in the right person at the right time.

Hopefully, healthcare professionals and patients will gain a better understanding of the importance of deprescribing, the challenges involved, and practical strategies for successful implementation.
