While antidepressants may be the drug of choice for depression, they also have FDA approval as treatments for other medical disorders. For example, antidepressants help treat obsessive-compulsive disorder, social phobia, panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Antidepressants also have non-FDA-approved, off-label indications. This activity reviews the indications, contraindications, action, adverse events, and other key elements of antidepressant therapy in the clinical setting as it relates to the essential points needed by members of an interprofessional team managing the care of patients receiving antidepressant medications for conditions that respond to this medication class.
