Prescribing medications to older people is difficult due comorbidity, limited evidence for efficacy, increased risk of adverse drug reactions, polypharmacy, and altered pharmacokinetics. This article describes the principles underlying clinical geriatric pharmacology including approaches evaluating benefit, adjusting dose age related pharmacokinetic changes. The challenge general practitioner balance an incomplete base efficacy in frail, against problems reactions without denying potentially valuable pharmacotherapeutic interventions.

Objective To assess the comparative effectiveness of exercise, antidepressants and their combination for alleviating depressive symptoms in adults with non-severe depression. Design Systematic review network meta-analysis. Data sources Embase, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Cochrane Library, Web Science, Scopus SportDiscus. Eligibility criteria Randomised controlled trials (1990–present) that examined an antidepressant or intervention against either treatment alone a control/placebo condition Study selection analysis Risk bias, indirectness overall confidence were assessed by two independent investigators. A frequentist meta-analysis was performed to examine postintervention differences symptom severity between groups. Intervention drop-out as measure acceptability. Results Twenty-one randomised (n=2551) 25 comparisons included network. There no among three main interventions (exercise vs antidepressants: standardised mean differences, SMD, −0.12; 95% CI −0.33 0.10, versus exercise: 0.00; 0.33, −0.40 0.16), although all treatments more beneficial than controls.
