What is Medication Management?

Many mental health conditions can be treated by prescription medications, and those who are prescribed medications must work carefully with a mental healthcare provider to ensure that their medications are working safely and properly.

Not all psychiatric medications are effective for every individual. It’s important to find the right medication and dosage for you.

Medication management is the ongoing process of evaluation and monitoring of a medication’s side effects, results and interactions with other medications.

How does Medication Management Work?

Struggling with Depression

Meet with a provider to review your history, symptoms, and past treatments to find the right medication management plan for depression.

Personalized Care

Your provider adjusts dosage or prescribes new mental health medications based on your unique needs and response.

Fewer Side Effects, Better Outcomes

Ongoing monitoring helps reduce antidepressant side effects and improve treatment effectiveness over time.

Psychiatric Evaluation:

STEP 1: Complete your Evaluation

Meet with a licensed psychiatric provider for a comprehensive mental health evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

STEP 2: Begin Your Treatment

Start your recommended care, which may include medication management, therapy, or other mental health services tailored to your needs.

STEP 3: Experience Long-term relief

With ongoing support and follow-up, your treatment plan helps you manage symptoms and improve your overall mental health.
