The Beers criteria serve as standard guidance for clinicians to prevent potentially inappropriate prescribing in patients age 65 years and older. This update of the Beers criteria examined current evidence to determine changes required to keep the recommendations in step with current practice and knowledge. Nearly 70 modifications have been made to the 2015 set.

The Beers criteria were updated in 2023.
