Background Older people (i.e. ≥40 years) with intellectual disability have unique medication needs and may experience high levels of potentially inappropriate prescribing. Despite the availability of tools to optimize older adults' prescriptions, there is no comprehensive tool specifically for use in older adults with intellectual disability. We aimed to develop a tool for this purpose: Optimizing Pharmaco-Therapy and Improving Medication for Ageing with Intellectual Disability (OPTIMA-ID).
