  • Treating depression involves a combination
    of therapy and antidepressant medication. Even
    then, depression is difficult to treat,
    especially in younger (children and adolescents)
    and older (the elderly) patients, as well as in
    those with histories of chronic disease. There
    are many options for treating depression, varying
    from medication to self-help to therapy. Most
    treatments are combinations of these, specially
    formed for an individual.Every individual
    suffering from clinical depression exhibits
    physical, mental, and psychological symptoms, but
    the symptoms of one person is almost never the
    same as another's. This means that, at least to
    date, there is no known cure-all for depression.
    It is important to identify the specific symptoms
    that plague a depressed individual, as well as
    their frequency and severity, in order to arrive
    at the best combination of treatment.Medication
    treatments for depression are quite popular
    treatments, with antidepressant medications often
    the first treatment option considered by health
    professionals. Antidepressants help individuals
    suffering from depression by relieving its
    symptoms, therefore making it easier for the
    patient to realise his/her problems and take
    appropriate, more effective action to solve them.
    Some of the more popular medication treatments
    for depression are listed below.Do you want to

  • Tricyclic Drugs
  • These drugs prevent the reuptake of
    serotonin or norepinephrine (or both) into the
    presynaptic nerve endings, which results in
    increased synaptic concentrations of these
    neurotransmitters. These drugs also cause a
    reduction in beta-adrenergic receptors. Examples
    of tricyclic drugs include tricyclic
    antidepressants (TCA's) such as amitriptyline.
    TCA's are the most widely used antidepressant
    drugs in treating depression.MAOI is a Japanese
    acronym for "Mao (Monoamine oxidase
    inhibitors)MAO inhibitors stop serotonin and
    norepinephrine from degrading enzymatically. MAO
    inhibitors are typically recommended for patients
    with atypical depression (depression
    characterised by a desire for sleep and elevated
    appetite, as compared to insomnia and anorexia),
    as well as certain patients who do not react to
    TCAs. MAO inhibitors have a significant chance of
    toxicity, and patients taking this type of drug
    must adhere to stringent dietary limits.
    Isocarboxazid is an MAO inhibitor (Marplan).SSRI
    stands for Selective Serotonin Reup (Selective
    serotonin reuptake inhibitors).Do you want to

  • SSR inhibitors are increasingly replacing
    TCAs as the main treatment for depression, as
    they have been found to be more efficient and
    have less side effects. SSR inhibitors have a
    number of drawbacks, including sleep and
    gastrointestinal issues, as well as improvements
    in sexual activity and libido. Fluoxetine
    (Prozac), sertraline (Zoloft), and paroxetine are
    also SSR inhibitors (Paxil).Antidepressants are
    medications that are used to treat
    depression.Antidepressants work by preventing
    norepinephrine, serotonin, and epinephrine from
    being reabsorbed. Antidepressants are not as
    often used as most drugs owing to a higher risk
    of side effects. Trazodone (Desyrel), bupropion
    (Wellbutrin), and maprotiline are
    antidepressants.Anticonvulsants, antianxiety
    pills, and antipsychotic drugs are some of the
    other medicines used to manage depression. Unlike
    the above drugs, these focus on a single form of
    distress (or one of its side effects) rather than
    the root causes. They are often used as
    adjunctive medications for suicidal people, and
    they can also be recommended for people with
    milder symptoms of mental disease.
