16 Substance Use in Older Adults
The consequences, complications, and comorbidities of substance
use are especially apparent in older adults. This is largely due to the potential for longer-term substance use in this population, increased numbers of prescription medications, generally more medical conditions at
baseline, and changes in metabolism of substances with age. Older
adults continue to be vulnerable to common consequences of substance
use such as infection and tolerance and may be more vulnerable to the
harmful effects of withdrawal. Older adults with SUDs have higher
rates of medical comorbidities than older adults without SUDs as well
as younger patients with SUDs. Substance use can also worsen preexisting comorbidities or cause disease processes to progress more
quickly. The relationship between psychiatric disorders and SUDs in
older adults is not well characterized. Substances do contribute to reversible and irreversible cognitive impairment in older adults, and abstinence can mitigate some of these risks.
KEY POINTS
• The number of older adults with substance use disorders is increasing rapidly, although these disorders continue to remain under-
recognized, undertreated, and understudied in this population.
• Substance use disorder screening is recommended yearly and
en major life changes occur in all adults age 60 and older.

— Multiple genes have been linked to alcohol and tobacco use.
Tobacco use is also associated with epigenetic modifications
that are reversible upon cessation.
— Older adults may be especially prone to the neurocognitive ef-
fects of chronic substance use, in particular alcohol and cocaine.
• Older adults with SUDs are at higher risk for experiencing medication–medication intera
and substance–health condition interactions than younger adults.

Comprehensive
Assessment of Older
Adults With
Substance Use
Karen Reimers, M.D.
Substance use disorders (SUDs) are common among older adults
in primary care and specialty care settings, but many clinicians do not
screen for, diagnose, or treat SUDs in this population. The signs and
symptoms of SUDs in older adults are not necessarily the same as those
in younger adults and do not always mirror diagnostic criteria, so clinicians may have difficulty detecting the misuse of substances in older
patients. In
