De-Prescribing Medications in Care Settings

Clinical and economic effectiveness of de-prescribing medications in health care settings.

This contextualized knowledge synthesis project aims to identify approaches to de-prescribing medications that could be used to effectively improve health outcomes and cost-effectiveness in community, acute care, and long term care settings.

Findings from this review will provide the Newfoundland Health System with recent, and up-to-date information on the topic. The evidence will inform economic and clinical improvements in healthcare delivery in Newfoundland & Labrador.
