Psychiatric medications treat mental health disorders, allowing patients to regain a quality of life and experience freedom from symptoms.
Most psychiatric medications work best alongside other therapies and treatments. For example, psychotherapy and brain stimulation therapy are both common mental health treatments you might receive.
Psychiatric medication management means carefully monitoring prescriptions and adjusting your medications to ensure you receive the right amount for treating your condition without risking too many negative side effects.
Because medication behaves differently for each person, your response to a new medication is slightly unpredictable. Carefully managing your medications allows you to adjust or switch medications as needed.
By carefully managing your psychiatric medications, you can enjoy symptom remission, prevent relapse, and promote long-term recovery.
We also offer GeneSight testing, which helps aid us in making medication decisions. Please feel free to ask us about it.
