Antidepressants are often the first treatment choice for adults with moderate or severe depression. Although antidepressants may not cure depression, they can reduce your symptoms. The first antidepressant you try may work fine. But if it doesn't relieve your symptoms, or it causes side effects that bother you, you may need to try another. All antidepressants have pros and cons, and until you try one, you won't know exactly how well it will work for you.
