Oakland Park FAQs for Medication Management
Will you take over my current list?
After a diagnostic review. We do not rubber-stamp unsafe combinations.
Can you help me taper?
Yes. Tapers are scheduled by drug class. Do not stop MAOIs, benzos, or paroxetine abruptly on your own.
What about pregnancy?
Tell us before a prescription is sent. Some agents need specialist coordination.
What is PDMP?
Florida's prescription drug monitoring program. We check it before controlled substances.
Will I get a refill without a visit?
Not as a routine. Monitoring interval is part of the prescription.
Do you prescribe stimulants?
When the evaluation supports ADHD and PDMP/safety checks pass. Not from a questionnaire alone.
Do you treat anxiety related to life transitions?
Yes. Life transitions — career changes, relocations, relationship shifts — are common triggers for anxiety and depression. Our evaluations assess these factors and create targeted treatment plans.
