Individuals sixty-five years and older account for one-third of all prescription medications. Eighty-seven percent of the geriatric population were prescribed at least one medication, thirty-six percent were prescribed five or more medications, and thirty-eight percent also took over the counter medications. Drug misuse and abuse in the elderly can cause cognitive and physical impairment: increase risk of falls, motor vehicle accidents, and may result in a declining ability to perform activities of daily living.

Ethical issues do not exist within a vacuum; rather, they emerge, evolve, and adapt within the sociocultural context of a particular society. In past decades, the field of professional ethics has received increased attention. Much of the discussion began in the 1960s in the medical field, where the blending of ethics, legalities, and medicine has become known as bioethics.
