Medicine Guides
Pregnancy:
If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant and take psychiatric medicine, please let us know. Pregnancy is an exciting time, but does involve additional medical decision-making. Mothertobaby.org is an excellent resource for medicine information related to pregnancy.
Drug Interactions:
Medicines can interact with supplements, substances, food, and other medicines. Some outstanding resources are:
- Drugs.com interaction checker
- Webmd interaction checker
- Medscape interaction checker
If you are concerned about medicine interactions, please visit with your Edmond Psychiatric Associate provider promptly. Please also be transparent with all prescribers in any practice you visit regarding all medicines you take.
Medicine Recalls:
Medicine recalls (both real and not-so-real) frequently hit the media and cause alarm. The FDA maintains a current recall list at fda.gov/safety/recalls for medicines as well as other recalled items. This is the same list we use to navigate recall notices.
