pubmed:abstractText |
Fear of possible cardiovascular side effects has prevented many physicians from treating older patients with antidepressants. However, we believe that it is the rare patient who cannot or should not be treated with some agent. Start with a low dose of desipramine, doxepin, or trazodone, depending upon the tolerance for sedation and anticholinergic side effects. Barring specific contraindications, the choice of drugs is usually based on the side-effect profile, rather than any differences in efficacy.
