Abstract
Medication-related problems were prevalent in both black and white older adults and persisted over 1 year. Blacks had more medication-related problems than whites, including higher rates of nonadherence. These findings require further study to better understand racial disparities in the quality of medication use in older adults and the impact of race on specific medication-related problems.
