Potentially inappropriate medications in older kidney transplant recipients: a Brazilian prevalence study.

Background Older kidney transplant recipients take a larger number of medications than younger patients, but there is currently no evidence that this affects health outcomes or that is it associated with potentia medicine-related problems. Objective To evaluate the prevalence and number of potentially inappropriate medications in older kidney transplant recipients and also the possible associated factors (sex, age, comorbidities, number of medications, etc.).
