What is medication management?

Medication management is the process of making sure the prescriptions you take are safe, effective, and right for your specific needs. 

The Direct Wellness RVA team offers medication management to evaluate how your medications are working together, determine if they’re helping, and research if better options may be available. This approach ensures your treatment plan is evidence-based and tailored to your specific needs.

Why would I need help managing my medications?

If you take more than one prescription, or if you’re dealing with a chronic condition, managing medications can quickly become overwhelming. You may worry about side effects, drug interactions, or whether you’re taking the correct dosage. 

Grace and her team at Direct Wellness RVA offer medication management if you’re:

• Taking multiple prescriptions at once
• Experiencing unwanted side effects that interfere with your daily functions
• Needing to adjust doses over time
• Managing chronic conditions that necessitate ongoing treatment
• Wondering if a non-medication option might work instead

By reviewing your entire medication list, Grace can spot potential issues early and recommend changes that keep you safer and healthier. 

Over time, your dosages and medication needs change. The Direct Wellness RVA team is proactive about scheduling medication management follow-up appointments to make sure your medications are working for you, not against you, at all times.

How does medication management work with a membership model?

In traditional healthcare environments, there’s not much time to discuss medications, if at all. You might get a prescription at the checkout counter and not really understand what it’s for. 

At Direct Wellness RVA, your membership gives you unlimited access to address medication questions anytime they come up. You can schedule extended visits, connect directly by phone or text, and review lab results that show how your medications are working.

Because Grace’s focus is on root-cause and whole-person care, the goal isn’t just to manage prescriptions but to minimize unnecessary medications and make sure what you’re taking has a clear purpose.

To ensure your prescriptions are safe and effective, call Direct Wellness RVA now to set up a medication management appointment or use the online scheduling option today.
