Abstract
the younger group, those who had childhood prescriptions for a specific condition such as ADHD, and those who reported misusing pain pills, reported that they would be able to provide a rough estimate of the number of lifetime pills consumed. All others felt it would be a task to estimate the number of pills on the spot, citing the same reasons as the older adults. Conclusions: The study findings highlight the need for pill cards and other methods to enhance recall of the number of lifetime prescription pills misused. Understanding the barriers to quantifying this information among two most vulnerable populations, older and younger adults, is necessary to emphasize on need for prevention interventions. Financial support: This study was funded by NIDA R01DA20791 (PI: Cottler).
