Timma,
What drug is it? And is it classified as both, or
used as both? Many benzodiazepines are classified as one or the other, but
are used fairly interchangeably.

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.

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. Tanya
