Medical - Medical (general)
French term or phrase: prise en charge d'ord
quand les anti-dépresseurs sont inefficaces, quelle que soit leur classe, il faut passer à une autre catégorie de médicament si l'on suspecte un trouble de la personnalité mais il faut peut-être d'abord essayer de mettre en place une prise en charge d'ord

Could anyone tell me what 'prise en charge' means here and what is 'd'ord' - is it abbreviated??
prescription management
Explanation:
I think that it means "prise en charge d'ordonnance". To make sure that there are no incompatible medications, no over prescriptions. A system that manages medication, such as computers in the French pharmacy system where a patient is recognized and medications are kept track of.

I find \"prise en charge\" to mean both cover( health insurance) and management. See the link for \"prise en charge de l\'insomnie\".

something missing?


Explanation:
prise en charge d'ordre psychologique...???

prendre en charge = to take care of
"prise en charge" in a health care setting can mean treatment or care. (treatment of the bill, too!)

Really just guessing. If the sentence finishes like that, no full stop or anything, it's highly suspect that something has been chopped off. I think you'd be best to check.

agree  Hervé du Verle: I think you are right. I cannot see the point in a "prescription management" here. Clinical or psychological management would be suitable (in any case) and moreover when antidepressants failed to improve the patient.

ord is abbreviated BECAUSE a lot of things are abbreviated in medicine...

as far as I can see, soemthing is said to be PRISE EN CHARGE by the assurance maladie..means to be coverd by the public health insurance..

a medication or doctor\'s visit or hospital stay is prise en charge or not pris en charge..means basically that the service or medication is COVERED by the health insurance system

neutral  Jane Lamb-Ruiz (X): prise en charge of anything in French medicine usually refers to whether the thing is covered or not under the plan. Your answer would be in French Gestion des Médicaments not prise en charge
4 hrs
  -> If this is France, the prescription would be covered by the sécu., no reason to specifiy, unless the text is very old, and pertained to people who had no coverage (today this is not true).
neutral  Claire Walker: not all meds are PEC the sécu in Fr. My partner (fr MD) thks something may be missing, could mean to check the patient has complied with the prescription. basically are they taking the meds, not uncommon in psych patients but difficult, hence the essayer
