The state Depart-
ment of Aging kicked
off a statewide drug
education program
today aimed at help-
ing to prevent thou-
sands of elderly
Pennsylvanians from
misusing drugs and
medicines.
“Studies show that
at least 30 percent of
elderly persons make
serious errors in the
use of prescription
drugs and over-the-
counter medicine.
That could translate
to as many as 700,000
older persons in the
Commonwealth,’’
Alma R. Jacobs, state
Secretary of Aging,
said at a news confer-
ence here.

program consists of:

By E. FEULNER
Since 1974, the
number of product-
liability lawsuits filed
in federal courts has
risen by more than
500 percent - costing
U.S. companies, and
ultimately consum-
ers, billions of dol-
lars, much of which
has ended up in the
pockets of attorneys.
The listing of law-
yers in the Washing-
ton, D.C., ‘Yellow
Pages,” for example,
now takes up more
than forty (That’s
right, forty!) pages.
This army of legal
briefs includes a
number of superstars
such as Baltimore
Orioles owner
Edward Bennett Wil-
liams. In addition,
former Vice Presi-
dent Walter Mondale
and other out-of-office
polticians who refuse
to go home are prac-
ticing here, as are
many others who
apparently make a
living chasing ambul-
ances and product-lia-
bility cases. There is
even one law firm
named Accident Asso-
ciates, which special-
izes in ‘‘personal
injury claims arising
out of...dangerous
products.” Many of
the law firms which
specialize in such
practice advertise
“no fee if no recov-
ery,” meaning, of
course, that they’ll
use any dirty trick in
the book to win a
case, because if they
don’t win they don’t
buy a new Lincoln
Continental or
Mercedes.
The product-liabil-
ity epidemic has hurt
consumers in other
ways. Extremely high
product-liability
insurance costs have
led some manufactur-
ers to drop certain
product lines rather
than face nuisance
suits. Connaught Lab-
oratories, for exam-

ple, discontinued pro-
duction of its DPT
(diptheria, whooping
cough, typhoid) vac-
cine for several
months because it
could not obtain lia-
bility insurance,
resulting in a tempo-
rary nationwide
shortage of the
important childhood
vaccine. Merrell Dow
Pharmaceuticals, a
subsidiary of Dow
Chemical, discontin-
ued production of the
drug Bendectin, con-
siered the only safe
and effective treat-
ment for women suf-
fering from severe
nausea during preg-
nancy, when the cost
of liability insurance
reached $10 million
annually, nearly
equal to Bendectin’s
$12 million to $13 mil-
lion annual sales rev-
enues.
There are hidden
costs as well. For
instance, it is now
estimated that 20 per-
cent of the cost of a
single stepladder goes
to pay for liability
insurance, lawyers,
and other such costs.
When a product-lia-
bility case goes to
court, the only people
wo usually make out
are the lawyers.
According to a Rand
Corporation study of
liability cases from
asbestos-related inju-
ries, attorneys
walked away with 63
percent of all damage
awards.
The issues of liabil-
ity must be addressed
in a fair and rational
way. The current
system is causing as
much harm as it is
doing good. The only
people who are really
benefitting from all
the confusion are the
lawyers.

cies on aging held at
the Holiday Inn
Town. These agencies
in turn will provide
drug education pro-
grams, using spe-
cially-designed audio
visual aids, atsenir
centers and other
meeting places for
older people.
Beginning July 1,
virtually all of the
state’s 2,800 pharma-
cies will have copies
of a pocket-sized
‘““Medication Pass-
port” available free
for senior citizens.
The ‘‘passports’’,
produced by Pennsyl-
vania Blue Shield,
can be used by older
persons to record pre-
scriptions, dosage
and other medical
instructions from
their doctors and
pharmacists.
Blue Shield Senior
Vice President
Robert B. Edmiston,
M.D., said ‘Although
mixing drugs is dan-
all ages, the problem
is especially acute for
the elderly. Advanc-
ing age brings ill-
nesses often treated
with prescription
medicines and over-
the-counter drugs,
and as we age, we
grow more sensitive
to the effects of all
chemical substances.
Any interplay among
food, alcohol, over-
the-counter drugs and
prescription medica-
tions can lead to
unpredictable
results.”
A brochute has
been developed by the
Department of Aging
entitled “What Should
§
I Know About Medi-
cations? A guide for
Older Pennsylvani-
ans.” Copies can be
obtained at pharma-
cies, doctors’ offices,
senior centers, area
agencies on aging and
through the state’s
Pharmaceutical
Assistance Contract
for the Elderly
(PACE) program.
Later in the year,
area agencies on
aging will conduct a
“Brown Bag” project
to encourage senior
citizens to bring all
their medications to
local sites where vol-
unteer pharmacists
will advise them on
their appropriate use.
Several non-govern-
ment organizations
vate sector also are
prehensive drug edu-
cation project. Their
cooperation was cited
