Medication Management Q&A

What is medication management?

Medication management is one of the psychiatric services available at Choulet Wellness. The psychiatrists at Choulet Wellnesstake an evidence-based and personalized approach to care.

What conditions benefit from medication management?

Many mental health conditions benefit from medication management. The psychiatrists at Choulet Wellness, including Dr. Choulet, provide comprehensive psychiatric care for:

• Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)

• Depressive disorders

• Bipolar disorder

• Insomnia

• Postpartum depression and anxiety

• Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)

• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  
  

When it comes to psychiatric medication, no single prescription works for every condition. As an additional service, Choulet Wellness partners with Tempus, an advanced technology company that offers genomic testing services.

Tempus uses your unique genetic profile to better understand how your body might react to various psychiatric medications. This allows her to personalize your care for the best outcome.

If your psychiatrist feels you may benefit from personalized medication management, he or she will request the saliva test to check your genetic profile. Tempus calls or sends you an email with your test results.

What can I expect from medication management?

You can expect attentive, personalized care from medication management at Choulet Wellness.

The team of psychiatrists strive to consider each client as an individual rather than a diagnosis. The psychiatrists at Choulet Wellness take the time to get to know you and understand your mental health concerns and goals, and collaborate with you when designing your treatment plan, including your medications.

When starting a new medication, your psychiatrist will schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor your symptoms and side effects so she can adjust your medication and dose as needed.

Though medications are an integral part of your mental health treatment, the psychiatrists at Choulet Wellness find that patients gain the most benefits when combined with therapy.
