Medication Management

What is medication management?

Medication management is a medically supervised service that can lower your risk for complications that can arise when you take psychiatric drugs.

Medication management can also identify conflicts that can occur when you take multiple medications. For instance, people who take more than one medication daily may experience unexpected drug interactions. Some drugs can also become less effective when you use them at the same time as other medications.

James Camp, NP, LLC, provides medication management for individuals aged 13 and up. As a skilled psychiatric nurse practitioner, James has extensive experience supervising the use of medications with your long-term health and wellness in mind.

When would I benefit from medication management?

You can benefit from the medication management services available at James Camp, NP, LLC, if you’re using medication as part of your treatment for:

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Bipolar disorder
• Substance use disorder
• Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)

It’s especially important that you follow through with medication management appointments if you take more than one medication regularly. James can identify any conflicts before you experience unwanted side effects.

What can I expect during my first medication management consultation?

During your initial medication management appointment at James Camp, NP, LLC, you can expect James to review your medical history and current health. He also reviews the medications you use frequently.

Bring along a detailed list of all medications you take, including over-the-counter and prescription drugs as well as their dosage. You should also include any dietary supplements you take. If James finds any conflicts between medications, he can recommend alternatives.

You can also expect to discuss how well your current medications are working to manage symptoms of anxiety, bipolar disorder, or other conditions. James can adjust the dosage to improve symptom relief or make changes to your prescriptions if the medications you take stop working.

Follow-up visits are available so that James can ensure you’re taking medications correctly to prevent overdosing, underdosing, and missed doses. He can also lower your risk for addiction and other complications that certain drugs can cause.
