Medication management is now an integral part of Pyramid Healthcare’s comprehensive treatment model.

Medication management services are designed for adults receiving substance abuse treatment at our programs who can benefit from psychotropic medications, including antidepressants or anti-anxiety medications. These medications are commonly used to manage symptoms of mental health disorders, such as anxiety and depression.

It’s important to distinguish medication management from medication-assisted treatment (MAT). Other treatment centers may refer to MAT as medication management. At Pyramid Healthcare, MAT refers to the use of medications to treat opioid use disorders and help individuals maintain sobriety.

Clients enrolled in our medication management program receive clinical support with their psychotropic medications. Clients receiving medications for substance use disorders, such as Suboxone or Methadone, are enrolled in Pyramid Healthcare’s MAT program.

Medication management is available at select outpatient treatment centers in Pennsylvania. For many clients with mental health or co-occurring disorders, medication management may be a step-down level of care following residential treatment.

Clients in this program work with a licensed medical professional at the outpatient treatment center. Pyramid Healthcare’s medical staff can help:

• Initiate medications for new clients
• Provide continuation of ongoing medications
• Ensure clients are following their medication regimen
• Monitor dosage and efficacy of medications
• Develop an individualized plan of care in conjunction with clients and other behavioral health professionals

Importantly, our medication management services help individuals improve their quality of life. To learn more about medication management or other treatment programs, please call Pyramid Healthcare’s 24/7 admissions department.
