Ask A Pharmacist - Coming Soon

For ADHD patients undergoing titration, 'Ask A Pharmacy' can be a valuable resource to help navigate the process more smoothly. Titration involves gradually adjusting medication dosage to find the optimal balance between effectiveness and side effects. This process can take weeks or months, requiring close monitoring and adjustments.

With 'Ask A Pharmacy,' patients can speak to a qualified pharmacist via a secure video consultation to get expert guidance without needing to visit a clinic or pharmacy in person. Pharmacists can help by:

• Clarifying the titration process – Explaining what to expect, how dosages may change over time, and how to monitor effectiveness.
• Managing side effects – Providing advice on common side effects like appetite changes, sleep disturbances, mood fluctuations, or headaches, and offering practical solutions to ease discomfort.
• Medication timing and best practices – Helping patients understand when and how to take their medication for maximum benefit while minimising unwanted effects.
• Addressing interactions – Advising on potential interactions with other medications, supplements, or dietary factors that could impact effectiveness.
• Supporting adherence – Offering strategies to help patients stay on track with their medication routine, especially if they struggle with remembering doses or consistency.
• Answering general questions – Providing reassurance and expert information to help patients feel more confident in their treatment plan.
