Medication management is an ongoing service that the Remart Medical team offers to ensure you get the most benefit from your medicines.
Medications are common treatments for all kinds of health problems, from acute infections to chronic diseases. Medication management focuses on the drugs you use regularly or long-term, such as treatments for heart disease, diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), high cholesterol, and psychiatric disorders like depression and anxiety.
Remart Medical specializes in mental health in addition to providing expert primary care services. This means you benefit from a range of expertise most family medicine practitioners can’t offer.
Medication management can make a significant difference in your life for several reasons. These include:
Medications often cause side effects, such as nausea, headaches, diarrhea, constipation, and dizziness. These problems are usually mild, and often, the benefits of the medication far outweigh any minor adverse effects.
However, some side effects can be distressing or even dangerous. Medication management ensures you don’t suffer any harm from your medicines.
Taking medications should have a significant positive effect, but sometimes drugs don’t offer the required benefits. This could be because you need a different dose, or you might do better with an alternative drug.
In some cases, finding the most effective treatment can take time, a challenge particularly common with psychiatric medications. Medication management ensures you take the optimal dose and are on the medicine that best suits your needs.
The drugs can sometimes interact if you take more than one kind of medicine. This might not be a problem in some cases, but it’s a cause for concern in others. Even over-the-counter medicines, herbal remedies, and some dietary supplements can affect how certain drugs work.
Medication management checks all your prescriptions to ensure you aren’t risking your health by taking unsafe drug combinations.
Visiting Remart Medical for a medication management review is straightforward and shouldn’t take long.
Your provider checks your medical history and current prescriptions and discusses how you’re getting on with your medicines. They also do some routine health checks and may take a blood sample for lab tests.
When they have all the information required, your provider can recommend any necessary changes.
