Please tell me how long it takes for to overcome depression caused by medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It varies: It depends on the type of medication, how long you have been on the medication and your own physical health to clear the medication out of your system. Some medication may take a couple of weeks to improve after it is stopped, while others may be a month or more.If you just started taking the medication and are depressed, i would allow 2-4 weeks to adjust to the medication. Follow up with your dr.
