Understanding the Need for Medication Management

Medication Management can be helpful for individuals with mental health conditions to effectively manage their symptoms and improve their overall well-being. It involves developing a comprehensive treatment plan that includes the appropriate use of medications, prescribed by a qualified clinician, along with other therapeutic interventions. By regularly monitoring the effectiveness and potential side effects of the medications, medication management ensures optimal treatment outcomes and helps individuals regain control of their mental health.

This process is overseen by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which provides the latest information, warnings, and approved medications through Medication Guides. It is important to stay informed about drug administration and any updates regarding mental health medications.

 

To get started, you can schedule an initial consultation with one of our medication management providers.

Our Medication Management Process

The Assistance Plus medication management process is designed to provide individuals with comprehensive and personalized care. The process begins with an initial assessment and diagnosis, where healthcare providers evaluate the individual's mental health condition, symptoms, and treatment history.  This assessment forms the basis for developing a customized medication plan that considers the individual's specific needs and goals.  The medication plan includes information about potential side effects and interactions, and a medication list that outlines the prescribed medications and their dosages. Ongoing monitoring and adjustments are an essential part of the process to ensure the medication plan remains effective and minimizes any potential side effects.
