The objective of the following research is to determine the clinical characteristics, frequency and medications involved in drug interactions and polypharmacy in geriatric patients attending the Hipólito Unanue National Hospital. The methodology used was descriptive, observational, non-experimental, cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 280 prescriptions of geriatric patients, which constituted 162 prescriptions. As a result, pharmacological interactions occur when the activity or effect of a drug is altered by the presence or effect of another drug and this is mostly produced by polypharmacy. In conclusion, the drugs causing potential drug-drug interactions is Dexamethasone + Naproxen in geriatric polypharmacy patients.
