PrescriptionsMost mental health medications don't fall into this category: Please note, unfortunately, because some medications, called controlled substances, have a high risk for abuse or misuse, getting high, or for overdose, I prescribe limited controlled substances and only at very low doses for anxiety medications, such as Klonopin (clonazepam) or Ativan (lorazepam), and doses within the usual range for stimulants such as Adderall (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine) or Ritalin (methylphenidate) ie: not high doses.
*I don't prescribe Xanax (alprazolam) at all. For adult new patients wanting evaluation for ADHD that hasn't been previously diagnosed, neuropsychological testing to confirm deficits and a negative drug screen is required before stimulant medication is considered and please understand that stimulants are not an appropriate medication for all people with ADHD. If you are taking these types of medications outside the range that I prescribe, we can meet to discuss the symptoms and treatment options, but I frequently will not take over prescribing the medications. Disability FormsI am not able to determine disability and do not complete any type of disability or off work forms for current or new patients.
