Yes, medications have shown to be helpful however, a discussion with your doctor would be the best way to decide. Other medical conditions may need to be taken into consideration before taking any prescription medication. Medications are important to discuss with your doctor. Typically, psychotherapy and medication management from your prescribing doctor are the best way to effectively manage bipolar.
