About Treatment with Psychiatric Medication
Treatment results and experiences are as individual as people. Some people get immediate effective results from medications and only need them for a short time. For example, a person with depression may feel much better after taking a medication for a few months, and may never need it again. Other patients with disorders like schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or patients may need to take medication for a much longer period of time. It is not uncommon during a patient’s treatment plan to try several medications over time in order to achieve optimum results. In addition, medication dosages can vary depending on the type of medication and each patients individual response to the medication.
The factors that can affect how effectively medications will work include:
- Type of mental disorder, such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia
- Age, sex, and body size
- Physical illnesses
- Habits like smoking and drinking
- Liver and kidney function
- Genetics
- Other medications and herbal/vitamin supplements
- Diet
- Whether medications are taken as prescribed.
The staff at Pacifica Care and Pacifica Care of Suncoast are available to monitor and assist patients to achieve optimum results with their medication plan.
