What is medication management?

Many types of mental health conditions are treatable with medication. When taking medication for a psychiatric disorder, it’s essential to have a qualified mental health provider monitoring any pharmacological treatment.  

Medications can provide the necessary stabilization and reduce the intensity of various emotional responses. The team at Horseshoe Healthcare has seen many patients who are overmedicated, as well as those who are undertreated.  

The team at Horseshoe Healthcare carefully adjusts the type and dosage of each medication to minimize side effects and maximize effect based on your individual needs. They seek to use medication responsibly, minimize possible side effects, and educate patients so they understand why they are taking certain medications. 

Which mental health conditions benefit from medication?

At Horseshoe Healthcare, their team may recommend medication as part of your personalized treatment plan to address conditions such as: 

• Depression 
• Anxiety 
• Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder 
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) 
• Psychotic disorders 

Medication is not the answer to all psychiatric issues. Human beings are both physical and spiritual. However, it can provide some stabilization, reduce the intensity of certain emotions, and alleviate many physical symptoms. If you have any of the above conditions, you should talk to your provider to see if medication management can help you.

• Antidepressants 
• Anti-anxiety medications 
• Antipsychotics 
• Mood stabilizers 

The team at Horseshoe Healthcare takes an integrative approach to mental health care.
