The proportion of elderly people, particularly those aged over 75 years, is rising steadily in the population. This guide to the management of common medical problems in the elderly provides a framework for improved prescribing of treatment in older patients by addressing problems specific to geriatric medicine. It is laid out in a structured problem-orientated format and each chapter is enhanced by a synopsis of the major ageing changes in that particular system, and should improve insight into what is physiological rather than pathological.

Central issues in geriatric pharmacology; cardiovascular disorders; neurological disorders; respiratory disorders; psychiatric disorders; endocrine disorders; nutritional & gastrointestinal disorders; rheumatological disorders; cancer; urogenital disorders; eye and ear disorders; haematological disorders; dermatological problems; palliative problems.
