Abstract
The increasing number of elderly raises many diseases including musculoskeletal disorders and osteoarthritis, which can cause joint pain. Incorrect treatment can cause toxicity, side effects, and reduced effectiveness of the drug given. The purpose of this study was to determine the rationality of prescribing analgesic drugs to elderly osteoarthritis patients at Assuyuthiyyah Pati Hospital for the January- December 2022 period. This type of research is quantitative and non-experimental with the sampling method using total sampling. The data collection method was retrospective with a sample of medical record data for elderly patients at Assuyuthiyyah Pati Hospital for the period January-December 2022. Data analysis used a frequency test. The results of this study found that the incidence of osteoarthritis was more common in women, the most common age of those who suffer from osteoarthritis is 60-75 years with the most comorbid disease being hypertension. The most frequently prescribed analgesic drug is meloxicam, and there is rationality for prescribing it in elderly osteoarthritis patients. In conclusion, judging by gender characteristics, women suffer more from osteoarthritis, namely 48 patients (75%), the most age of those who suffer from osteoarthritis, namely 60-75 years, 42 patients (65.6%) and the most comorbid disease, namely hypertension, as many as 11 patients ( 17.2%). The most frequently prescribed analgesic drug was meloxicam 43 prescriptions (60.6%) and rationality was 100% for the right indication, patient and time interval for administration as well as the right diagnosis 78.1%, the right drug 82.8% and the right dose 71, 9%.
