Substances affect older adults differently than others. Geriatrician Lauren Kelly, MD, MPH, discusses how she helps her older adult patients address addiction, noting that treatment is a matter of helping them gain control over their substance abuse. This can mean stopping use altogether, or it can mean using substances in a safer or more moderate fashion.
