  Abstract


When five or more than five used on regular bases that is defined as polypharmacy, and the interactions/ adverse drug reaction occur by using these multiple medications is defined as drug-drug interactions. This study possess the risk of DDIs are rising because of multimorbidity and age related changes, which can cause organ toxicity, organ failure, and can be a reason for hospitalization. In this study we had found that in India, 25% of the total population are in older age in which 49% have no sign of polypharmacy but other 51% include 26% of men's and 24% of women's which shows high prevalence of polypharmacy. In this study we also go through the strategies to call out the risk associated with polypharmacy and various common drug-drug interaction (DDIs) with clinical implications and geriatric risks.
