Various medical specialists regularly face the problem of optimal antidepressant therapy selection in patients with comorbid mental and somatic pathology. The aim of our review: to evaluate the aspects of the treatment of depression in various types of somatic diseases, focusing primarily on the safety issues. This review discusses the main aspects of antidepressant therapy in patients with cardiovascular, metabolic, gastrointestinal and oncological diseases.
In most cases, antidepressant therapy in patients with comorbid somatic diseases is a necessary and effective objective for stabilizing both mental and somatic problems and improving the overall prognosis. At the same time, before starting treatment, each case should be assessed by the attending physician individually, taking into account all aspects that may affect the quality of therapy and the patient’s condition.
