What is psychotropic or medication management? Psychiatric medication management refers to prescribing, monitoring, and adjusting medications for mental health disorders. It is a crucial aspect of psychiatric treatment and involves a collaborative approach between the psychiatrist, the patient, and sometimes other healthcare providers.
Medication management can help reduce sever symptoms and reduce the risk of hospitalizations related to illness. Medication management is the process of ensuring people take prescription drugs and medications correctly. It ensures your medicines are appropriate and you’re receiving the right dosages. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 60% of adults in the United States use prescription drugs.
Patients are to report any side effects; also, it is important for them to know, that certain combinations of psychotropic medications with alcohol or illicit drugs can be dangerous.
At Lifeway Mental Health Wellness Care, the provider manages to reduce the patient complaint of side effects by changing the dosage of the medication, prescribe a different medication, suggest that you take the medication at a different time of day, or to try non-medication intervention to reduce side effects. For example, diet and exercise programs can be helpful in addressing weight gain.
If you have any questions or concerns about your medications, reach out to the provider to know how you’re feeling. We will work together to create a strategy that works for you while meeting your health care needs.
