Abstract
In the old people, the use of psychopharmacists and their combinations is associated with a particularly high risk of adverse effects. Also, it is not clinically justified in most cases. These drugs are often used in unauthorized directions and for longer periods of the recommended ones. In other countries, there has been a more frequent use in people admitted to homes, with a higher morbidity and mortality rate.
