BRIA’s expert MD Psychiatrists offer medications (such as antidepressants) for women ages 18-65 across reproductive life stages, when needed, after a comprehensive assessment.
BRIA’s Nurse Practitioners may prescribe ADHD medications (such as psychostimulants) after a thorough assessment. Nurse Practitioners may also prescribe Menopause Hormone Therapy (MHT) or other medications after a MEDI Hormone Assessment for PMS or perimenopause symptoms.
