SB is a 25 year-old patient with General Anxiety Disorder and Major Depressive Disorder who arrives to your medication management clinic. She has a previous history of fluoxetine and duloxetine use, which she did not tolerate well. She is currently taking sertraline 150 mg daily and says the effect is wearing-off and that she would like to try something different. Her psychiatrist is considering augmentation, but is concerned about pill-burden. Are there any newer antidepressant treatment options for SB that may help provide better symptom control?
