THE latest issue of the Society of Hospital Pharmacists of Australia (SHPA's) flagship Journal of Pharmacy Practice and Research (JPPR) is out now, and is a special edition dedicated to the final ever Geriatrics Therapeutics Review.
Available online, the issue celebrates the end of the long-running education series and features a selection of content from the 146 peer-received scientific articles published over the past four decades.
Some key highlights of the special issue are a commentary from geriatrician A/Prof Michael Woodward on what has changed in drug treatment of Alzheimer's disease in the last 30 years, and a 20-year retrospective on 'deprescribing' from physician Prof Ian Scott.
There is also a reprint of the original GTR article on deprescribing - see HERE.
