Teaching points regarding your medication choices


Problem: In 700 words, speak as if you are back in your clinical and explain each psychiatric medication (Start Doxepin 6mg PO PRN, take 0.5-1 tablet at bedtime for insomnia) to this person(Mr Tee). Be sure to adjust your explanation for any age or cognitive consideration (such as to a child, teenager, or a person with a cognitive disability). Explain why you are prescribing the medication, dosing, side effects, and patient education. Clarify the route of administration; do not assume that a medication is given by po (or oral route). Some meds are administered intramuscular injection (IM) or as a liquid. It is important to clarify when writing a note (or a prescription) that the med is po. Document your plans and intentions moving forward. If starting a cross-taper or planning on discontinuing or re-evaluating any current medications, what is the end goal? This is especially true for medications that should be used short-term, such as benzodiazepines or sedative-hypnotics. When a person has never taken a medication, tolerability should always be established orally before starting a long-acting injectable. Be concise and thorough with your medications. You wouldn't copy and paste or read off an entire PDR to your patient, so do not do it here. What is the most important teaching points regarding your medication choices? Most common side effects to watch for? Black box warnings? Need Assignment Help?
