dc.description.abstractPurpose of review: This review raises awareness regarding the lack of data available for healthcare professionals caring for older adults with cancer when using supportive care medications. Recent findings: Guidelines for supportive cancer care lack concrete recommendations on the appropriate use of medications in older adults with cancer. Some guidelines, such as the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Older Adult Oncology guideline, contain vital information for prescribers to consider when choosing a supportive care medication. Information at present in most guidelines is generally vague, identifying areas where caution is required in older adults, without specific details. Summary: Research is needed to assess the efficacy and safety of supportive cancer care medications in older adults.en
