Substance use among older adults is an increasingly important public health concern that requires greater attention and understanding. As individuals age, physiological changes can alter the way their bodies process substances such as alcohol, prescription medications, and illicit drugs, making them more vulnerable to negative health effects. Additionally, older adults may experience life changes such as retirement, social isolation, chronic pain, or the loss of loved ones, which can contribute to an increased risk of substance use as a coping mechanism.
