Understanding medication management
The symptoms of mental illnesses are influenced by many factors, including the function of specific areas of brain function. Medications work by balancing key neurotransmitters to reduce symptoms, or sometimes, to relieve them completely.
The medical providers at Family Care Center will conduct a thorough clinical assessment to see which medication is best suited for each patient. They consider many factors, including how family members may have responded to similar medications. We always discuss potential side effects and help each patient to consider the treatment options.
Medications often help the most when they’re part of an overall treatment program. In some cases, medication can reduce symptoms so other methods of a treatment plan can be more effective.
For example, a medication can ease symptoms of depression like loss of energy and lack of concentration, allowing an individual to engage more in talk therapy. Your plan may include psychotherapy, group therapy, TMS or family counseling to help with problems that medication alone can’t treat.
Medications we prescribe include:
- Antidepressants
- Anti-Anxiety
- Mood Stabilizers
- Stimulants/Concentration Assistance
- Sleep Medication
- Anti-Psychotics
