Physician forcing a patient to take med
I have a son who recently have a breakdown because he was over worked, had sleep deprivation & we had a few close calls within our family with death. My question is can a doctor force a patient who is under their care in a phshciatric ward make them take medication if the patient refuses to take it? He (my son) is "if you will" back to his normal self recognizes what caused his breakdown & is fine. He doesn't feel he needs it but rather than & outlet to express himself and what triggered it.
