QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH MEDICINES

You and your family can help your doctor find the right medications for you. The doctor needs to know your medical history, other medications being taken, and life plans such as hoping to have a baby. After taking the medication for a short time, you should tell the doctor about favorable results as well as side effects. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and professional organisations recommend that the patient or a family member ask the following questions when a medication is prescribed:

What is the name of the medication, and what is it supposed to do?

How and when do I take it, and when do I stop taking it?

What foods, drinks, or other medications should I avoid while taking the prescribed medication?

Should it be taken with food or on an empty stomach?

Is it safe to drink alcohol while on this medication?

What are the side effects, and what should I do if they occur?

Is a Patient Package Insert for the medication available?
