A member asked:

Can a current psychiatrist see what medications past psychiatrists have prescribed you?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe: If the two physicians practice together, then they can know. Also, with electronic medical records, the information may be readily available. However, it is always a good idea to let any health care provider know about current and past medications.
