Computational Modeling of Drug-Drug Interactions in Polypharmacy for Elderly Patients

Quick fact

In elderly patients taking five or more drugs, the risk of adverse drug events rises dramatically, and computational models trained on electronic health records can flag potential drug-drug interactions with an accuracy comparable to clinical expert review, helping prevent hospitalizations.

Why this is interesting

You know that taking multiple medications can be risky, but did you know that computers can now predict harmful drug interactions before they happen?
