The study design is a pragmatic, one-arm pilot trial to test the feasibility and acceptability of implementing a deprescribing intervention with older people with dementia and their care partners in primary care. The intervention consists of patient-facing educational brochures on CNS-active medications and decision support for the primary care provider. Ethnic/minority groups will be over-sampled to ensure a diverse study sample.
