Description: "Depression may affect up to 5% of the general population each year. This program takes a systematic look at this common illness. Neurotransmitters and receptors in the brain are examined, including theories related to how medication provides relief from depression. The three broad catagories of anti-depressant agents are examined: tricyclic agents, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, and monoamine oxidase inhibitors. Specific agents within each group are discussed with a focus on drug interactions and precautions, and potential side effects"--Container.
