YouthMed.Info

YouthMed.Info is a trusted online resource, co-developed by a dedicated group of volunteer clinical and academic pharmacists, consultant psychiatrists, nurses, and young people from St John of God Hospital, Spunout, The University of Edinburgh, and the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. Our mission is to provide children, teens, young adults, and their parents with accurate, accessible, and practical information about mental health medicines.

While medicines aren’t the only form of support in navigating a mental health recovery journey or treating conditions like ADHD, we believe in empowering young people with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their treatment. Our resource aims to simplify complex information, ensuring it is both understandable and relevant to the unique needs of young people.

YouthMed.Info represents a collaborative effort to demystify mental health medications and offer guidance that can help families explore their options confidently.
