Overview of an Adjunctive Treatment for Major Depressive Disorder
A Science & Innovation Webinar, presented by Abbvie.
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a disabling mental health condition with an annual prevalence of 10.4% and a lifetime prevalence of 20.6% in the US. This is associated with a high economic burden, which has increased significantly over the last decade, comprising direct and indirect costs, due to lost productivity. MDD also results in considerable burden to patients, with social, emotional and physical problems; cognitive difficulties; changes in sleep and eating patterns; and can impact patients’ quality of life. Many MDD patients require augmentation of their antidepressant with an additional therapy, and augmentation with an atypical antipsychotic is a guideline-recommended option for appropriate MDD patients. This session will focus on the burden of MDD, as well as the pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of an adjunctive treatment for MDD.
