    Main Methods:

    • This section summarizes established knowledge regarding multimorbidity.
    • Information is synthesized from existing literature and clinical observations.

    Main Results:

    • Multimorbidity is linked to a diminished quality of life for affected individuals.
    • Patients with multiple chronic conditions experience higher mortality rates.
    • Polypharmacy and a substantial treatment burden are common in multimorbidity.
    • Increased rates of adverse drug events are observed in patients with multiple conditions.
    • Significantly greater health services usage, including emergency and unplanned care, is associated with multimorbidity.
