Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am having a problem of Major depression dignosed after 1 & 1/2 months after my 2nd delivery on 12/11/11. I am presently taking 1 tab - Modelart 100 mg in morning, 1 tab- Amytrpyline -25 mg & 1 - Tab Depranil plus for past 1 month. I have still not getting complete relief from depression. Initial same medicine worked better. Please help.
you seem to have postpartum depression and medicines that have u taken is good but no need of amitriptiline
depranil contains escitalopram 10 mg if u don't feel better than increase up to 20 mg if require
postpartum depression has good prognosis . you will be ok within 4 to 6 months if u take regular treatment
as per my opinion mood alert also has no role try to change if possible if your psychiatrist agree with that have faith and positive thinking do regular exercise and meditations yoga and deep breathing proper sleep and diet enjoy your hobbies and keep yourself busy get well soon thank you
