nice episode, thanks!

the standard of care in depressive disorders, however, is highly debated. many professional associations today are not recommending SSRI for moderate depressions. SSRI use in general is highly debatable. So placebo is a valid comparator. maybe look into Kirsch, the emperors new clothes, if you want to dive into it.

Really glad you are addressing the concerns with the new PPD med Zuranolone, in my little piece of the health world our initial concern was that exposure during lactation was not part of the safety profile, yet 83% or so of women start breastfeeding?

Re orbita-2: so I get stented so I’m not taking imdur or prn ntg but likely still continued on Coreg or other beta blocker but instead of anti-anginal I’m taking Plavix or other. It’s still a trade-off and I’m still probably going to be carrying around the prn ntg. Patients can’t be expected to make this decision. They will choose stenting every time because they cannot see everything involved with that stent and its risks.
