Samenvatting
The objective of this study was to better understand older drivers’ experiences with prescription and over the counter OTC medications and driving, whether they had been alerted by clinicians or pharmacists about potential impacts, and to assess overall knowledge about the potential impacts on driving. The authors were interested in knowing the extent to which driver characteristics (demographic, medical, driving exposure and avoidance, and activities of daily life) are associated with awareness of potentially driver impairing PDI medications. Research in this area will help focus future research and educational interventions. (Author/publisher)
