description This descriptive study examined psychosocial factors associated with the use of psychotropic medication among older adults living in the community (N = 160). Comparative and descriptive statistical analysis were performed. When compared with non users, psychotropic medication users were older and less formally educated; they were less satisfied with their life and their health; they had greater health problems, reported more depressive symptoms and had more limitations in their daily activities; and they scored lower on sleep satisfaction. Nurses should be aware of the psychotropic medication use among older adults and informed older adults about the risk of addiction and the pernicious effects of long term usage.
