Week 4 you are learning many concepts, the one we will be focusing on with this discussion board is appropriate prescribing of medication to the older adult.  As Nurse Practitioner, we have the responsibility of deciding if a medication is warranted, which drug is the best to prescribe and how much/often.  It is also our responsibility to educate on the side effects of the medication and when to seek medical attention if it should occur.  Finally, it is our responsibility to determine the effectiveness of our treatment that was prescribed, for example, is the patient’s glucose stable on Glucophage 500 mg BID PO or do we need to titrate up or down.
