Description
What does pharmacological treatment for major depressive disorder look like? To understand this, we must discuss the monoamine hypothesis of depression. Neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and noradrenaline are key, as this will help us understand the pharmacology of typical antidepressants. These include selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors, or SNRIs, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, or MAOIs, and tricyclic antidepressants or TCAs. Let's learn about them all!
