Is medication use associated with orthostatic hypotension in older women?
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Uncontrolled hypertension, polypharmacy with antihypertensives, and multiple comorbidities predict orthostatic hypotension in older women, highlighting the need for monitoring in these high-risk groups.
uncontrolled hypertension, use of three or more antihypertensives and multiple co-morbidities are predictors of OH in older women. Detection or monitoring of OH in these groups may prevent women from suffering its adverse consequences.
