I USE THE CALSSIFICATION IN THE PDR. ONE CAN ALWAYS ADDRESS THE USE OF THESE
OTHER MEDICATIONS UNDER PSYCH RAP, BEHAVIOR RAP, ETC... EVEN IF IT DID NOT
TRIGGER.I WOULS ALSO INCLUDE IT AS AN APPROACH ON MY CAREPLAN.

Subject: Medication classification


When documenting medications, do you classify a med for the purpose it is
being given or the classification the medication is in the PDR? Our psych MD
frequently puts residents on Neurotin for anxiety.
