MedOptimizer™ Depression—feel better faster.
Depression Is More Complex Than Just Feeling Sad
When you’re depressed, everything is harder—getting up in the morning, remembering where you put things, finding the energy to leave the house or even carrying on a conversation.
You want your life back. You want to feel hopeful again. And you want to feel better fast.
Designed by a psychiatrist with more than 30 years of experience treating patients, MedOptimizer™ is a proactive app created to help people struggling with depression work with their doctors to find the best-fit treatment plan fast.
The Challenges:
• All people with depression are NOT the same. They differ in the specific types and severity of their symptoms, the times of day they suffer symptoms most intensely, and their individual responses to medications.
• All depression medications are NOT the same. They differ in how long they last, how quickly they begin working, and in the types of symptoms they are most effective in treating.
• Physicians need BETTER data. Finding the best plan is largely dependent on the amount, type, and accuracy of information a physician receives during the limited time allotted for an appointment that may only occur every 1 to 2 months. Most people aren’t clear on the specific data they should record and don’t have a quick and easy way to record it.
The Solution:
MedOptimizer™ Depression provides you with a fast and reliable way to record the specific type and amount of data at the required frequency your physician needs to create an individually customized and thus more effective medication treatment plan for you. Simply put, find the Right Medication at the Right Dose at the Right Times for you.
Get Ready
• We know that if you’re suffering from depression, you have less energy and patience so we created quick and easy menus allowing you to record any medications and doses you are currently taking.
• Record a “base-line” rating of symptoms you experienced BEFORE medication so MedOptimizer™ can measure the effectiveness of current or future medication(s).
Get Rating
• Use the quick and simple rating screen to record your current symptoms and any side effects each day.
NOTE: MedOptimizer™ does not replace the experience and professional judgment of your physician. MedOptimizer™ provides you and your doctor with the additional tools and information needed to more accurately monitor and measure your progress and response to medication as well as to more quickly identify the right medication at the right dose at the right time for you.
Dr. Robert D. Hunt, creator of the MedOptimizer™, a Harvard-trained psychiatrist and former professor at the medical schools of Yale and Vanderbilt, holds several patents and continues treat patients at his clinic in Nashville, Tennessee.
