Hello Colleagues,
When prescribing antidepressant medication, it is important to understand that most people do not see immediate, noticeable results as they would when taking aspirin for a headache.
It is important to manage your patient’s expectations and provide support and coping strategies to help them deal with the symptoms while the medicine does its work. See suggestions for improving your patients’ adherence to their antidepressant medication regimens.
