Psychostimulants As Antidepressants Worth the Risk?

Sometimes antidepressants aren't enough. Some people find that antidepressants alone don't give them enough relief from the symptoms of their depression. Other people just don't react well to them. Also, there are situations in which antidepressants are, for one reason or another, inappropriate. In these cases, doctors might turn to drugs called psychostimulants. In this book, you'll learn what psychostimulants are and why they are sometimes used to help treat depression. You'll also learn about the possible risks and side effects of these drugs, as well as their potential for abuse. Finally, you'll learn what the future may hold for using psychostimulants as antidepressants.
