RÉSUMÉ
The choice of antidepressants for depression or neurotic disorder is analyzed in the article. Drugs of the group of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are used for various mental disorders more often than other antidepressants according to clinical recommendations. Drugs of other groups (selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants, tetracyclic antidepressants, monoamine oxidase inhibitors) are used when the effectiveness of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors is insufficient or the severity of the mental disorder is significant. The duration of therapy, if well tolerated, can range from several months to many years. Antidepressants from Canonpharma Production are successfully used in clinical practice: Sertraline Canon, Fluoxetine Canon, Escitalopram Canon, Duloxetine Canon, Mirtazapine Canon, Agomelatine Canon. These drugs have different mechanisms of action. They are used for various depression and other mental disorders. All antidepressants from Canonpharma Production have been tested for bioequivalence to the original drugs. This fact increases confidence in these medicines. Some features of the use of these antidepressants based on clinical recommendations and personal experience are discussed in the article.
