Abstract

End-of-life care aims to support a person in the last stages of a life-limiting condition to live as well as possible until they die. Prescribing at the end-of-life presents many challenges.

This article discusses the care and management of patients as they receive care at the end of their life as well as any anticipatory medication that may be needed.
