classification
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.

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.
