Psychotic disorders are complex mental health conditions that often require long-term, specialized treatment. While therapy and lifestyle changes are essential, medication is usually the foundation of care. At iPsychiatry, we provide medication management for psychotic disorders in California, helping patients statewide receive consistent, professional support through secure virtual sessions.

From diagnosis to long-term stabilization, our board-certified psychiatrists are here to guide you or your loved one with empathy and expertise.

Understanding Psychotic Disorders

Psychotic disorders disrupt a person’s ability to distinguish between what is real and what is not. They include:

• Schizophrenia

• Schizoaffective disorder

• Brief psychotic disorder

• Substance-induced psychosis

• Bipolar disorder with psychotic features

• Major depressive disorder with psychotic features

Symptoms may include hallucinations, delusions, disorganized speech, and abnormal behavior. These symptoms can be frightening and isolating, but the right treatment can significantly improve quality of life.

What Is Medication Management?

Medication management involves more than just prescribing drugs. At iPsychiatry, it’s a personalized process that includes:

• Comprehensive psychiatric evaluation

• Selection of the most effective antipsychotic medication

• Monitoring for side effects and symptom response

• Adjustments based on lifestyle, other health conditions, and age

• Education for the patient and family members

• Coordinated care with therapists and primary doctors

This approach helps patients reach stability, avoid relapses, and reduce hospitalizations.
