Titration

A thorough evaluation of your ADHD symptoms will be carried out by a highly experienced consultant Psychiatrist. This includes an examination of your medical history as well as an assessment using the typical ADHD rating scales and questionnaires.

Following your assessment you will be advised that medication may be beneficial in your case. This will take place during your follow-up appointment (which could be in person via video link or by phone). Your doctor will go over the various medication options available. If you decide to start medication, we will offer you the option of titrating your dose to optimize the benefits/side-effects balance for you.

This process could take a few weeks. It requires adjusting your child's dosage gradually until the appropriate balance is reached. It's not uncommon to have to titrate up to three different medications before you find the one that is most suitable for your child's ADHD. It is crucial that parents take part in the titration and be on the lookout for their child's behavior so they can let the doctors know whether the medication is working or causing adverse effects.

If you decide to go back to NHS treatment you will receive a private prescription for your medication. You will have to pay the pharmacy. This is not included in the consultation fee. You'll be required to attend regular appointments every six months to monitor your medication. This includes blood pressure and pulse readings. Annual exams are also required.

Follow-up appointments

Once the assessment has been completed, you will be able to make follow-up appointments with the psychiatrist as necessary. The appointment usually takes place through a video call using zoom however in some instances it might be possible to have an audio-only consultation (again at an extra cost).

We will then discuss the options for treatment and then decide on a bespoke, individualised ADHD medication titration. This will include a discussion and review of your medication dose, as well as any side effects you might be experiencing. The cost for these titration consultations is PS150 for face-to-face sessions and PS60 for telephone or online video consultations. The pharmacy will charge you for any charges for medication.

The psychiatrist will also ask you about your family background and the impact your ADHD symptoms impact your life, including any issues with your relationships that you may be having or other mental health issues you might be experiencing. ADHD can be a hereditary condition, and it's vital to look into your family's history in order to determine if you are at risk of developing this disorder.

During this examination, it is crucial that you are truthful and open with the doctor, as they will be using the information you provide to determine whether you have the diagnostic criteria for ADHD.

If you aren't sure what your preference is, we suggest that you talk with your GP before booking your Private Adhd Medication Titration examination as some providers have different rules regarding whether they require an GP referral letter or not. Find out if your GP accepts the Shared Care Agreement, which means you will be referred to them after you leave the clinic to get a medication prescription.

Medication

Medication is an integral part of the journey for many people who are seeking a private ADHD diagnosis. It isn't always easy to obtain prescriptions from psychiatrists on the NHS. NHS waiting lists can be notoriously long, and GPs may be reluctant to refer their patients to specialist services.

One method to avoid this is to ask your GP to refer you to Right to Choose (see psychiatry-uk and ADHD 360). You can pick a provider that offers an assessment on your own and the titration. This can reduce your wait time significantly and is more convenient when you are working and have a full schedule.

Once you have been identified as a candidate for this treatment your chosen doctor will examine you and decide whether or not you need to be monitored for a dose of medication. You'll need to complete forms that are different for each provider but the most frequent ones are self-reporting questions and medical histories that go back to childhood and adulthood. These will help your clinician identify any conditions that could indicate that you shouldn't be taking ADHD medications if they're prescribed.

If you are being titrated, the medication will consist of stimulants and nonstimulant medicines. These will be carefully examined and monitored to determine the best combination for you. The titration can be a lengthy process and may require multiple appointments before your dose is stable.

The frequency of your follow-up appointments will depend on the type and amount of medication you're taking. They can be scheduled for monthly or quarterly. This will involve your clinician making sure that you are stable on the medication, logging any side effects you've experienced, and making any necessary adjustments to ensure you are on a safe dosage. You will be required to go to an annual review as well as a regular health check-up that includes pulse, blood pressure and weight measurements.

Some patients may be content with their medication, and do not have to discuss their titration process further. However, for those who require further discussions regarding their titration and treatment plan it is possible that they will be referred back to the same private clinic that conducted their initial assessment. In this instance, the titration will be included in the consultation cost. The medication will be given via a private adhd medication titration prescription. This can cost more than an NHS prescription because the pharmacy will charge for the medication.
