To get the most significant benefit from your treatment while reducing your risks, you may need a medication management program. Programs of this type provide you with professional oversight that maximizes your safety during mental health treatment.

What Is Medication Management?

Challenges to Effective Medication Use

Almost 16% of all American adults take prescription medication for mental health-related reasons. The highest rates of medication use are found among the middle-aged and the elderly. A smaller but significant percentage of younger adults also take mental health medications.

No matter your age, safe and consistent use of medication comes with a range of potential challenges. Common examples of these challenges include:

  • Making sure that you have enough medication
  • Keeping your current medications well-organized
  • Taking your medication in the intended amount and at proper times
  • Being mindful of the potential for serious medication interactions
  • Understanding the possible side effects of a given medication
  • Avoiding the dangers of prescribing errors 

It’s essential that these issues are dealt with effectively. Proper use of your medication increases the odds that you’ll receive its intended benefits. It also lowers the odds that you will experience unwanted problems related to your medication use. 

The risks of medication interactions, side effects, and prescribing errors are especially important to consider. Several kinds of harmful interactions may occur, including problems with the combination with:

  • Two or more medications
  • Medication and alcohol or street drugs
  • Food and medication

Most medications can produce some kind of side effect. These effects vary in number from medicine to medicine. They also vary in the seriousness of their negative impact on your health and well-being. 

Several kinds of prescribing errors may occur. For example, you may receive too little or too much of a given medication. In addition, a doctor may mistakenly prescribe the wrong kind of medication for your condition or situation. 

Depression

Depression can be overwhelming. Our highly educated, trained psychiatrists provide treatment for those with clinical depression who are in need of a treatment program.

Anxiety

Satori Health’s anxiety treatment program restores equilibrium and helps people heal from anxiety disorders by identifying the underlying causes of the anxiety.

Bipolar Diorder

Bipolar disorder causes intense shifts in an individual’s thoughts, behavior, and energy. With our effective bipolar disorder treatment program, a healthy, stable life is within reach.

CAUSES

Understanding Medication Management

The Role of Medication Management

Medication management is specifically designed to help you meet the challenges of safe medication use. It provides a working framework for everyone involved in your treatment. That includes:

  • You
  • Your family
  • The doctors who prescribe your medication and oversee its use
  • Any staff members who actually administer your medication
  • The administrators of your mental health facility

An effective management program provides specific guidance that’s appropriate for each of these groups. 

You and your family may receive other forms of mental health treatment and medication management guidance. Key examples here include a patient fact sheet that keeps you up-to-date on the current management strategy. They also include a patient information card that helps you remember the prescriptions you should bring to your appointments. 

Doctors provide effective management in numerous ways. Examples of the steps they take include:

  • Helping determine which medications you need
  • Prescribing that medication in proper dosages
  • Providing you with clear guidance on how to use your medication
  • Ensuring that you understand the risks for medication interactions
  • Monitoring your response to a medication and checking for side effects
  • Making any needed changes in your medication plan
  • Checking for any issues that may interfere with your safe, consistent medication use

Pharmacists also provide essential management support. They do so, in part, by obtaining the medication you need. In addition, they also serve as an additional line of defense against medication errors.

Your Options for Medication Management Services in LA

Are There Mental Health Treatment Centers That Offer Medication Management Services?

All mental health service providers rely on some kind of system for managing medication use. However, some systems are fairly basic and don’t constitute a formal, detailed program. In contrast, other mental health providers feature comprehensive medication management services. These services are designed to ensure you gain the full benefit of thorough medical oversight.

Choosing the right program is critical for determining the level of management you receive. Satori Health’s medication management program in the San Fernando Valley offers everything you need for safe, effective medication use.

WHY US?

The benefits

What Are the Benefits of a Medication Management Program?

Properly designed medication management provides you with some key mental health treatment benefits. Perhaps the most important benefit is the overview provided by a top-quality program. At all times, you and your doctor will keep the big picture of effective medication use in mind. This high-level view helps ensure that you:

  • Receive the best medication options for your diagnosis and situation
  • Take those options in ways that balance positive outcomes against potential side effects
  • Understand what your medications do and why you’re taking them
  • Have enough information to weigh your possible risks
  • Experience minimal delays in changing your prescriptions as needed
  • Enjoy expert advice and support in all phases of medication use

Thorough medication management is also key to your personal safety. Without it, you could suffer needlessly from unaddressed side effects. You could also be exposed to various kinds of medication interactions. Unfortunately, these are not rare or isolated concerns. Every year, millions of Americans experience medication-related issues that require a visit to a doctor or an emergency room. The safety provided by a management program can help you avoid becoming part of this sobering statistic. 

In addition, medication management has another important benefit. Namely, it helps support the other elements of your mental health recovery plan. As a result, it may further increase your chances of getting the most from your mental health services.

To learn more about the many advantages of successful management, contact the experts at Satori Health. We’ll be happy to explain exactly why exemplary San Fernando Valley medication management is one of our top priorities.
