Speaker: Jill Stansbury. Describes the common office scenario of patients wishing to eliminate psychiatric medications because of side effects, or having been on them for a decade or more and wondering if they still require them. This presentation explores common medications such as SSRIs and anxiolytics, and a few of the less common, such as antipsychotics. We will learn how patients can safely reduce or complement such medications with botanicals, and what situations require extreme caution in eliminating the pharmaceuticals or using herbs in tandem.
