The combination of psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy has been found most effective in the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). This course will focus on the available pharmacotherapy. As the use of antidepressants increases worldwide, nurses should maintain competency in these drugs to avoid unnecessary adverse events, prevent drug-drug interactions, and assist providers with navigating through treatment-resistant depression.
The goal of this course is to assist members of the healthcare team with staying up to date on commonly used antidepressants and to identify strategies for approaching treatment-resistant depression.
