Antidepressants? Antidepresent is a common misspelling of antidepressants.
Antidepressants, which are prescription medications, are primarily used for treating depression. There are several types of these drugs available, including tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. Sometimes, it may take as long as a month or two before symptoms improve with the use of antidepressants. Potential side effects include changes in appetite and weight, sleep changes, and sexual side effects.
