Psychosocial therapies, behavior strategies, and other non-pharmacological (non-medication) interventions are to be considered by the medical consenter before or along with psychotropic medications.
Non-pharmacological interventions are specific methods a caregiver can use to help a child manage behavior. This may include therapy and specific behavior modification strategies. Each child is different, so the strategies should be specific to the child’s needs and discussed with the child’s therapist or medical provider.
