Abstract
survey of viewers of the @psyhfarm-tv YouTube channel (89,000 subscribers) on the effectiveness and tolerability of 17 antidepressants showed that selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, according to respondents, are more likely to help and are well tolerated., Serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors were less likely to not help, and receptor-acting antidepressants were more likely to not help than other drugs. Groups of antidepressants with different mechanisms of action differ significantly in effectiveness and tolerability.
