Dr. B (My IM residency director): This elderly patient is on 20 medications? No wonder he is confused! Stop all of them except for one.Me: Which one Dr. B?Dr. B: Any one!
And i thought i had it bad with the 6 different prescriptions i take every day. As far as I know only the one is prescribed due to a side effect from one of the other pills.
