They are usually willing again at about a year of age. MEDICINES We do take our medicine as we grow older. During a dis cussion at the recent New York symposium, "Managing Medi cation in an Older Population," sponsored by the American Ger iatrics Society, it was noted one study disclosed that Ameri cans who are 65 or older use nearly one-third of the nation's medications. This is the senior citizen category that represents only about 11 percent of the national population. Staying healthy, however, may not be just a matter of taking medicine. Another dis cussion at the symposium dis closed that 60 percent of older Americans use nonprescription drugs, often in conjunction with prescribed medication and us ually without consulting their pharmacist or physician about the proper use of over-the- counter medications, when tak en alone or in combination with other drugs.. Concern about multiple med ications stems from the fact that one drug may change the effectiveness of another. The supplementing of a prescribed medication with some common drugs--laxatives, cough medi cines, even aspirin--may some times cause side effects and interfere with other medicines. Also, doctors say, proper med ication becomes more import ant as we grow older because the metabolism changes. Most doctors regard self- treatment with nonprescription medications appropriate under many conditions but, as the symposium percentages suggest, patients should communicate with health professionals rela tive to the overall use of med ications.
