ISOM 2025 Conference: Polypharmacy Reduction

Date: October 3rd to 4th

Location: Toronto and online

This conference is for medical professionals seeking practical, evidence-based strategies to manage polypharmacy and improve patient outcomes. Leading clinicians and researchers will present information on deprescribing and the supportive role of nutrient therapies.

Why this topic matters

Polypharmacy poses significant health risks, especially for elderly patients and those with chronic conditions. Increased occurrences of adverse drug reactions, drug interactions, cognitive decline, and hospitalizations highlight the urgent need for more effective medication management.

This conference will help you:

• recognize and mitigate the risks of polypharmacy and overprescribing
• implement deprescribing as a proactive, therapeutic strategy
• identify and address drug-induced nutrient depletion
• integrate evidence-based nutrient therapies to support improved deprescribing outcomes

Who should attend?

Family physicians, specialists, pharmacists, naturopathic doctors, and healthcare professionals involved in the management of patients with chronic conditions. This conference is essential for those who are committed to improving patient care.
