Psychiatric Medication Review & Management

Personalized, responsible prescribing for mental health stability and clarity

Not every mood needs a medication — and not every medication is right for you

If you've ever felt unsure whether your psychiatric medication is helping, causing side effects, or even necessary at all, you're not alone. Many adults in Dubai are prescribed antidepressants, mood stabilizers, or anxiety medications — often by general practitioners or online platforms — without ongoing monitoring or a clear understanding of how those medications affect them. At American Wellness Center, our psychiatry team offers in-depth medication reviews and personalized management plans. Whether you're starting treatment, adjusting dosages, or looking to taper off responsibly, we focus on safety, insight, and long-term stability.

You May Need a Medication Review If...

• You’ve been on the same psychiatric medication for months or years without reevaluation
• You’re unsure if your current medication is working or worsening your symptoms
• You’re experiencing side effects like fatigue, weight changes, or emotional flatness
• You’ve tried multiple medications but still don’t feel “right”
• You were prescribed medication by a non-psychiatrist and want a specialist’s opinion
• You’re considering stopping your medication but aren’t sure how to do it safely
