Older Women and Medication Management: A Consumer's Guide

Welcome to my older women and medication management website, a resource for anyone interested in learning more about the effects of medications on our bodies as we age, symptoms of adverse drug dosages and reactions and strategies.

Please note that though educational in nature, this website does not substitute for professional medical advice and should not be used as a sole guide for making decisions. 
Medications are constantly being developed and tested for their long term effects, so the information provided here should not be assumed to be the most current.  When in doubt, always talk to your doctor or pharmacist.  If you or a loved one are experiencing a health emergency, call 911.  I avow all legal responsibility for your outcome.

That said, I hope that you find this site to be helpful as a starting point to understand the effects of medications.  This was designed as a class project for Gero-435: Women and Aging, at the University of Southern California.
