Amaç: Çoklu ilaç kullanımı, polifarmasi olarak ta adlandırılmaktadır. Hastanın aynı anda veya belli aralıklarla, çoğu zaman endikasyon olmadan birden fazla ilacı bir arada kullanmasıdır. Polifarmasi en sık, birden fazla kronik hastalığın bir arada görüldüğü yaşlı hastalarda gözlenmektedir. Yaşlı hastalarda polifarmasiye bağlı en önemli sorun ise ilaç uyuncunun sağlanamamasıdır. Çalışmamızda bir grup yaşlı hastada çoklu ilaç kullanımı sonrasında ilaç uyuncu değerlendirilmiştir.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma 55 yaş üstü, 70 hasta ile yürütülmüştür. Hastalarla yüz yüze görüşülerek çoklu ilaç kullanımları değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: İlaç uyuncu ve eğitim düzeyi arasında bir ilişki bulunmamıştır. Kadınların ilaçları doğru kullanım oranı, erkeklerden daha fazla bulunmuştur. Yaşlıların %19'unun alternatif tedavileri tercih ettikleri, geleneksel ve alternatif tedaviyi birlikte uygulayanların ise %22.9 olduğu bulunmuştur. Katılımcıların % 1.4'ünün hekim önerisi dışında ilaç kullandığı bulunmuştur.Sonuç: Yaşlanma süreci, tüm organ sistemlerini etkileyen yapısal ve fonksiyonel değişikliklerle karakterize, homeostatik kapasitenin azalmasına neden olan bir süreçtir. Vücut kompozisyonundaki değişiklikler, hepatik ve böbrek fonksiyonlarını etkileyerek yağda çözünen ilaçların dağılım hacminde artış ve suda çözünen ilaçların klerensinde azalmayla sonuçlanmaktadır. İlaçların plazma yarılanma ömrü genel olarak artmaktadır. Yaşlanmaya bağlı farmakokinetik ve farmakodinamik değişikliklerin terapötik rejimler üzerindeki etkisini iyi anlamak, tedavi etkinliğini artıracaktır

Objective: Multiple drug use is also called as polypharmacy. The use of more than one drug by the patient at the same time or at certain intervals, often without indication. Polypharmacy is most often seen in elderly patients with multiple chronic illnesses. The most important problem related to polypharmacy in elderly patients is the inability to obtain drug compliance. In our study, drug compliance was assessed after multiple drug use in a group of elderly patients.Material and Methods: The study was conducted with 70 patients over 55 years of age. Multiple drug use was assessed by face-to-face interviews with the patients.Results: No relationship was found between drug compliance and education level. Women's correct medication rate was found higher than men. It was found that 19% of the elderly preferred alternative treatment and 22.9% of those who applied traditional and alternative treatment together. 1.4% of the participants were found to use drugs other than the physician's recommendation.Conclusion: The aging process is characterized by structural and functional changes affecting all organ systems and is a process that causes the reduction of homeostatic capacity. Changes in body composition affect hepatic and renal function, resulting in an increase in the volume of distribution of lipid-soluble drugs and a decrease in the clearance of water-soluble drugs. The plasma half-life of drugs is generally increased. Well-understood of the effect of aging-related pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes on therapeutic regimens will increase the efficacy of treatment
