Abstract
To the Editor,
The value of comprehensive and standardised reporting in clinical research is widely recognised. Standardisation facilitates reliability, comparability and reproducibility. The urgent need for guidance in relation to the reporting of medication use in observational studies has been recognised [1]. We conducted a systematic review of prospective cohort studies of health and ageing that identified substantial variability in the reporting of medication use [2]. The objective of this work was to develop consensus criteria for the reporting of medication use in observational studies
