E26: Antidepressant Dosing

On this episode I will be going over all the nuances of dosing the most common antidepressants. I'll talk about the optimal ranges for dosing for most patients, the max doses, and when we can go above the max dose and how high we can go. I will also talk about what doses I start with and how I titrate. I will also discuss a little about why some patients may need doses much lower and much higher than the average patient, and I will touch on hepatic and renal dosing as well. There's a lot more in here than you will find in the prescribing guidelines. I think you will find this detailed information on how to maximize effect and minimize adverse effects with dosing to be really helpful. Enjoy!
