The Right Drug, the Right Patient, the Right Time

The content of this presentation will encourage audience participation. The “rights” section—drug, patient, time—will enable participants to reflect on medical malpractice cases where these rights were initiated in less than adequate outcomes and fell below the standard of care. Additionally, attendees will come to understand the pharmacokinetic challenges often reflected in the treatment of the geriatric patient, and there will be discussion of the various opioid metabolism routes of substrate, inducer, and inhibitor pathways.
