Medication Management in Miami
Maybe your psychiatrist left the practice, your primary care doctor wants a specialist managing your antidepressant, or refills keep arriving without anyone actually checking how you feel. Medication management in Miami too often means a fifteen minute visit every six months and a prescription on autopilot. shrinkMD does the opposite: board certified clinicians who adjust treatment based on measured response, follow up that actually happens, and visits by secure video from anywhere in Miami-Dade, so staying on top of your medication never requires crossing the city.

Why shrinkMD
Prescribing that respects your life in Miami
Whether your week runs through a Brickell trading floor, Jackson Memorial night shifts, or a family business in Hialeah, follow ups are 15 to 30 minutes by video and scheduled around your reality, early, late, or between meetings. If you split the year between Miami and New York, your care continues in both, since we serve both states.
We prescribe to any Miami pharmacy electronically, coordinate with your primary care doctor when you want us to, and keep your records out of insurer databases entirely, because we do not bill insurance. Your treatment stays between you and your clinician.
What's included
How medication management works here
It starts with understanding what you take and everything you have tried before, each medication with its dose, duration, and response, because that history is the best predictor of what will work next. From there, your clinician adjusts thoughtfully: one change at a time, at sensible doses, judged by validated symptom scores rather than impressions.
While starting or changing medication you are seen every two to four weeks; once stable, every one to three months. Side effects get handled like adult business, with clear guidance on what fades, what to report, and how to switch safely. We also deprescribe when a medication is no longer earning its place. We do not prescribe controlled substances, including stimulants and benzodiazepines, and we are upfront about that before you book. Labs, when needed, are coordinated through your Miami primary care office or a local lab.

Frequently asked questions
Good questions, clear answers
Can you take over the prescriptions my old Miami psychiatrist managed?
In most cases yes, for non controlled medications, after an evaluation and records review. Switching practices should not mean starting over.
How often will I be seen?
Every two to four weeks while adjusting, every one to three months once stable. By video, the follow ups actually fit a Miami schedule, so they actually happen.
Do you prescribe Adderall or Xanax in Miami?
No. shrinkMD does not prescribe controlled substances anywhere. We treat anxiety and attention concerns with effective non controlled options and honest conversation about what we can and cannot do.
Which Miami pharmacies can you send prescriptions to?
Any of them. Prescriptions go electronically to the pharmacy you choose, from a Sedano's pharmacy counter to the Navarro or CVS near you.
What if my medication stops working?
Tell your clinician, not just the refill line. Measured follow up exists precisely to catch this early, and a dose change or thoughtful switch usually beats white knuckling it.
