Hello,

At old age, they become more receptive to disease and disorder. However, much of the load of illness among older people can be lowered or stopped by acceptably addressing particular risk factors, including:

  • injury
  • development of noncommunicable diseases
  • poverty
  • social isolation and exclusion, mental health disorders
  • elder maltreatment.

Thank you.

Hello Aspirant

Whenever you take any medication in your old age there more factors likely to affect your health conditions. Like there are certain muscle degeneration disorders as well as some age related metabolic issues which are likely to occur after the age of 60. Not only that there are certain Enzyme secretion level alteration happening at the  old age which leads to severe intolerance.

Hope it helps!!!
