Safety Advice
It usually takes around 7 days before you begin to notice the effects of antidepressants. Contact your doctor if you have not noticed any improvement after 4 weeks, as they may recommend increasing your dose or trying a different antidepressant.
It's usually recommended that a course of antidepressants lasts at least 6 months, to prevent your condition recurring when you stop. Some people with recurrent illness are advised to carry on taking medicine indefinitely.
The recommended course of treatment largely depends on weighing up the benefits of the medicine against the side effects. If your illness is severe and the medicine is effective, treatment will often be continued. If your illness is mild and the medicine does not help and causes side effects, continued treatment will not be recommended.
Storage
Store at room temperature 20°C to 25°C
Pregnancy & Lactation
Both psychiatric experts and ob-gyn experts agree that if you have mild depression and have been symptom-free for at least six months, you may be able to stop using antidepressants under a doctor’s supervision before getting pregnant or while you are pregnant. Psychotherapy, along with lifestyle measures, may be all that you need to manage your depression. You may be able to get through your pregnancy without antidepressants if you:
Talk with a therapist on a regular basis
Exercise more
Spend time outside
Practice yoga and meditation
Minimize your stress
But, the experts point out, it will be better for both you and your baby to stay on antidepressants while pregnant if any of the following is true:
You have a history of severe or recurrent depression
You have a history of other mental illnesses, such as bipolar disorder
You have ever been suicidal
