Psychiatric Medication from a Top New York Psychiatrist

Psychiatric medications are specifically designated for the exact treatment needed just as other drugs are. Infections are diagnosed and the specific bacteria are attacked by properly chosen antibiotics. There are different high blood pressure causes and the cardiologist carefully chooses the right antihypertensive drug. Likewise Dr. Wineburg utilizes psychopharmacology very specifically for patients. Some mental conditions are caused by chemical imbalances in the brain and respond very well to proper drugs. Long experience with major conditions as depression, bipolar, schizophrenia, over decades has led Dr. Wineburg to not only choosing the most effective drug but also considering the least disturbing side effects. Given a drug one time with expected results is a dream for most patients. Careful introduction of the right drug, immediate changes, and most importantly the ongoing availability of the doctor if there be any side effect problems is essential for patient recovery.

Psychiatric drugs have been one of the most actively moving and exciting areas in pharmacology. Fortunately Dr. Wineburg has tuned in to the latest discoveries and is very much concerned with both positive and negative effects of new drugs. His sincerity in explaining every aspect of medication results in his many trusting patients. Safety is the factor always under consideration. An open communication with the patient is essential and often a laboratory test to ensure the safety of drugs is followed as well.

One advantage of medication is the moment the adequate dose level of the right drug is chosen with improvement of the patient, clearer thinking, better sleep, adequate return of work, etc., leads soon to infrequent visits with only occasional monitoring. Dr. Wineburg says “The most pleasant moment of my relationship with a patient is when we part company- job well done”.
