Are antidepressants overprescribed?

The Current

About this episode

About six million Canadians fill prescriptions for antidepressants. And now, SSRI’s are coming under increasing scrutiny with a push to curb psychiatric drugs in the United States.. We discuss the latest, evidence-based research on depression about what we know - and don’t know - about its causes, and whether the drugs prescribed to treat it are still the best option.
