“In psychiatry, as in all areas of medicine, prescribing and deprescribing occur every day as part of individualized, evidence-based treatment planning between physicians and patients. The solution is not to stigmatize psychiatric medication or impose broad assumptions on clinical care, but to ensure that patients have access to the full range of evidence-based treatments and that decisions are guided by the best available science and each patient’s needs.”

In a recent study across three VA centers, a patient-directed educational intervention was shown to modestly increase #deprescribing of potentially low-benefit and high-risk medications like PPIs and high-dose gabapentin. By providing brochures before primary care visits, this low-tech, scalable strategy helped promote shared decision making and improve medication safety.

#Deprescribing ist ein geplanter und überwachter
Prozess, bei dem #Arzneimittel, die potenziell unangemessen, schädlich, nicht mehr indiziert oder ohne Nutzen für die aktuelle #Therapie sind, schrittweise reduziert oder sicher abgesetzt werden.
