People taking potentially inappropriate medications (PIM) are at increased risk for adverse events, particularly those aged 65 and older. This study looked at the association between PIM prescription and self-reported health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of adults aged 65 and older. People taking at least one PIM reported lower HRQoL than those with no PIM.
