MEDICATION MANAGEMENT

It can treat underlying symptoms in acute and chronic situations and help patients maintain the equanimity they need to stick with the healing process.

Prescribing medication for mental health requires something known as “medication management.” In medication management, the patient and therapist work together to determine whether or not a medication is a right option for the patient. In the session, the psychiatrist and patient discuss options, then the psychiatrist recommends a dosage. The patient then follows up with the psychiatrist, checking in about the effects of the medicine to determine whether or not it benefits the patient.

In some cases, patients may need long-term management of their medications. Bodies adjust over time, and medications may not be as effective after years or months of use. In cases where a medication has addictive properties, long-term management can help guard against addiction.
