Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I want to know if there is any over the counter meds for depression? I think my depression may be related to a thyroid problem, but have not been diagnosed with thyroid problems. I have sever symptoms for thyroid problems, i.e., hair loss, dry itchy skin, and I have to fight hard not to gain weight, much less lose weight.
The treatment of depression is combination therapy with Lifestyle changes [Diet and Exercise], medications and Psychotherapy.
He needs to consult a Psychiatrist, who can assess if he has mild or moderate depression and based on that Counselling sessions are planned along with medications called Antidepressants.
Hope this helps!
Best Regards
