Most people who &#097;&#114;&#101; diagnosed &#119;&#105;&#116;&#104; major depressive disorder get prescribed &#097;&#110; antidepressant &#114;&#097;&#116;&#104;&#101;&#114; than &#103;&#111;&#105;&#110;&#103; straight &#105;&#110;&#116;&#111; talk therapy, explained Dr. Ranak Trivedi, &#116;&#104;&#101; lead author on &#116;&#104;&#101; current study &#102;&#114;&#111;&#109; &#116;&#104;&#101; University &#111;&#102; Washington School &#111;&#102; Public Health.</p>
<p>But &#117;&#112; to half &#111;&#102; those people &#109;&#105;&#103;&#104;&#116; &#110;&#111;&#116; feel &#097;&#110;&#121; &#098;&#101;&#116;&#116;&#101;&#114; &#097;&#102;&#116;&#101;&#114; they start taking &#116;&#104;&#101; medication, she &#115;&#097;&#105;&#100;.</p>
<p>Guidelines point doctors to a &#102;&#101;&#119; &#100;&#105;&#102;&#102;&#101;&#114;&#101;&#110;&#116; options &#102;&#111;&#114; treating patients who don&#039;t respond to &#116;&#104;&#101;&#105;&#114; &#102;&#105;&#114;&#115;&#116; antidepressant drug. &#116;&#104;&#101; doctor &#099;&#097;&#110; add a &#110;&#101;&#119; antidepressant to &#116;&#104;&#101; &#102;&#105;&#114;&#115;&#116; &#111;&#110;&#101;, &#111;&#114; switch drugs completely. Sometimes it takes several attempts to find &#116;&#104;&#101; drug &#111;&#114; drugs &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; will &#104;&#101;&#108;&#112; &#116;&#104;&#101; patient feel &#098;&#101;&#116;&#116;&#101;&#114;. They &#099;&#097;&#110; also refer &#116;&#104;&#101; patient to talk therapy, either in addition to medication &#111;&#114; &#105;&#110;&#115;&#116;&#101;&#097;&#100; &#111;&#102; medication.</p>
<p>However, &quot;though &#116;&#104;&#101; guidelines seem to suggest &#116;&#104;&#101;&#114;&#101; &#097;&#114;&#101; &#102;&#111;&#117;&#114; ways to approach treating people who don&#039;t respond to (the first) treatment, &#119;&#101; tend to gravitate toward giving medication,&quot; Trivedi &#116;&#111;&#108;&#100; Reuters Health.</p>
<p>To see if patients could &#098;&#101; getting more out &#111;&#102; talk therapy &#105;&#110;&#115;&#116;&#101;&#097;&#100; &#111;&#102; switching &#098;&#101;&#116;&#119;&#101;&#101;&#110; &#100;&#105;&#102;&#102;&#101;&#114;&#101;&#110;&#116; antidepressants, Trivedi and &#104;&#101;&#114; colleagues reviewed a series &#111;&#102; &#115;&#101;&#118;&#101;&#110; studies involving nearly 600 adults &#119;&#105;&#116;&#104; major depressive disorder who hadn&#039;t &#098;&#101;&#101;&#110; helped by medication.</p>
<p>In &#101;&#097;&#099;&#104; &#111;&#102; &#116;&#104;&#101; studies, researchers either &#116;&#111;&#111;&#107; patients off antidepressant medications and substituted talk therapy, &#111;&#114; they added therapy on top &#111;&#102; patients&#039; usual medication routine. &#116;&#104;&#101;&#110; they compared those patients to &#111;&#116;&#104;&#101;&#114;&#115; who stayed on &#116;&#104;&#101;&#105;&#114; antidepressant drug, switched to a &#110;&#101;&#119; drug, &#111;&#114; &#104;&#097;&#100; &#097;&#110;&#111;&#116;&#104;&#101;&#114; drug added to &#116;&#104;&#101;&#105;&#114; original medication &#8211; but didn&#039;t &#104;&#097;&#118;&#101; &#097;&#110;&#121; talk therapy.</p>
<p>Each &#111;&#102; &#116;&#104;&#101; studies was a &quot;randomized&quot; trial, meaning participants and doctors didn&#039;t get to &#099;&#104;&#111;&#111;&#115;&#101; which treatment &#116;&#104;&#101; patients &#103;&#111;&#116;; &#105;&#110;&#115;&#116;&#101;&#097;&#100;, &#116;&#104;&#101; assignments &#119;&#101;&#114;&#101; &#109;&#097;&#100;&#101; by chance. This type &#111;&#102; study &#105;&#115; &#116;&#104;&#101; most reliable.</p>
<p>Taken &#116;&#111;&#103;&#101;&#116;&#104;&#101;&#114;, &#116;&#104;&#101; results published in &#116;&#104;&#101; Journal &#111;&#102; General Internal Medicine &#119;&#101;&#114;&#101; generally favorable. Some &#111;&#102; &#116;&#104;&#101; studies suggested &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; patients improved more when they &#119;&#101;&#114;&#101; in therapy and on medication than when they &#119;&#101;&#114;&#101; &#111;&#110;&#108;&#121; taking medication. &#111;&#116;&#104;&#101;&#114;&#115; &#115;&#104;&#111;&#119;&#101;&#100; &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; adding &#111;&#114; switching to talk therapy was beneficial, but &#110;&#111;&#116; &#097;&#110;&#121; more so than changing a patient&#039;s prescription &#111;&#114; &#104;&#097;&#118;&#105;&#110;&#103; &#116;&#104;&#101; patient &#116;&#097;&#107;&#101; additional drugs.</p>
<p>Researchers &#115;&#097;&#121; &#116;&#104;&#101; results &#115;&#104;&#111;&#119; &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; talk therapy &#109;&#097;&#121; &#098;&#101; promising &#102;&#111;&#114; people who don&#039;t get &#098;&#101;&#116;&#116;&#101;&#114; on medication &#8211; but they also reflect &#116;&#104;&#101; fact &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; &#109;&#097;&#110;&#121; more studies &#097;&#114;&#101; needed.</p>
<p>As it &#098;&#101;&#099;&#111;&#109;&#101;&#115; clearer &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; &#116;&#104;&#101; &#102;&#105;&#114;&#115;&#116; try &#097;&#116; &#097;&#110; antidepressant doesn&#039;t work &#102;&#111;&#114; &#109;&#097;&#110;&#121; people, &quot;it&#039;s apparent &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; greater attention needs to &#098;&#101; paid to this &#119;&#104;&#111;&#108;&#101; &#111;&#116;&#104;&#101;&#114; avenue &#111;&#102; treatment &#102;&#111;&#114; people who aren&#039;t responding to &#102;&#105;&#114;&#115;&#116; and second and &#116;&#104;&#105;&#114;&#100; choice medications,&quot; Dr. Michael Thase &#116;&#111;&#108;&#100; Reuters Health. Thase, a psychiatrist &#097;&#116; &#116;&#104;&#101; University &#111;&#102; Pennsylvania School &#111;&#102; Medicine, &#104;&#097;&#115; participated in some &#111;&#102; &#116;&#104;&#101; research &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; suggests &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; talk therapy &#099;&#097;&#110; &#098;&#101; beneficial. (He wasn&#039;t involved in Trivedi&#039;s study, however.)</p>
<p>For some patients, however, getting access to talk therapy &#105;&#115; more difficult and costly than taking medications, which &#104;&#097;&#118;&#101; gotten cheaper as generic versions &#098;&#101;&#099;&#097;&#109;&#101; &#097;&#118;&#097;&#105;&#108;&#097;&#098;&#108;&#101;. As &#111;&#102; August 2010, according to data &#102;&#114;&#111;&#109; Wolters Kluwer Pharma Solutions reported by Consumer Reports, average monthly costs &#102;&#111;&#114; antidepressants &#119;&#101;&#114;&#101; as low, &#102;&#111;&#114; example, as &#036;19 &#102;&#111;&#114; fluoxetine (the generic form &#111;&#102; Prozac), &#036;26 &#102;&#111;&#114; sertraline (Zoloft), and &#036;35 &#102;&#111;&#114; citalopram (Celexa).</p>
<p>Talk therapy costs more than medication, &#097;&#116; least in &#116;&#104;&#101; short term. And insurance companies often &#112;&#117;&#116; limits on reimbursements (although &#110;&#101;&#119; rules issued by &#116;&#104;&#101; Obama administration &#097;&#114;&#101; intended to improve coverage &#111;&#102; mental health care &#102;&#111;&#114; people whose insurance comes through &#116;&#104;&#101;&#105;&#114; employers).</p>
<p>But Trivedi &#115;&#097;&#105;&#100; &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; in &#116;&#104;&#101; long &#114;&#117;&#110;, talk therapy &#109;&#097;&#121; &#119;&#101;&#108;&#108; &#098;&#101; worth it. &quot;People who &#116;&#097;&#107;&#101; antidepressants often end &#117;&#112; taking them &#102;&#111;&#114; life,&quot; she &#115;&#097;&#105;&#100;. &#119;&#105;&#116;&#104; talk therapy, patients often &#103;&#111; &#102;&#111;&#114; a &#102;&#101;&#119; months, &#111;&#114; sometimes a &#102;&#101;&#119; years, and &#116;&#104;&#101;&#110; stop when &#116;&#104;&#101;&#105;&#114; symptoms &#104;&#097;&#118;&#101; gone &#097;&#119;&#097;&#121;.</p>
<p>The &#098;&#111;&#116;&#116;&#111;&#109; line &#105;&#115;, treatment choices &#115;&#104;&#111;&#117;&#108;&#100; &#099;&#111;&#109;&#101; &#100;&#111;&#119;&#110; to what &#116;&#104;&#101; patient prefers, Thase &#115;&#097;&#105;&#100;. In &#116;&#104;&#101; early stages &#111;&#102; chronic depression, &quot;&#121;&#111;&#117; &#115;&#104;&#111;&#117;&#108;&#100; pick &#116;&#104;&#101; (treatment) &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; &#121;&#111;&#117; want, &#111;&#114; &#116;&#104;&#101; combination, and &#103;&#111; &#119;&#105;&#116;&#104; &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116;. &#116;&#104;&#101;&#110; consider &#116;&#104;&#101; alternative if &#116;&#104;&#114;&#101;&#101; months &#105;&#110;&#116;&#111; it you&#039;re &#110;&#111; &#098;&#101;&#116;&#116;&#101;&#114;.&quot;</p>
<p>Trivedi agreed &#116;&#104;&#097;&#116; people &#119;&#105;&#116;&#104; depression &#115;&#104;&#111;&#117;&#108;&#100; try to &#098;&#101; attuned to &#116;&#104;&#101; kind &#111;&#102; &#104;&#101;&#108;&#112; they want and &#110;&#101;&#101;&#100;, while &#110;&#111;&#116; losing hope &#111;&#102; getting &#098;&#101;&#116;&#116;&#101;&#114;. &#102;&#111;&#114; those &#119;&#105;&#116;&#104; chronic depression, she &#115;&#097;&#105;&#100;, &quot;keep &#097;&#116; it.

Category I CPT codes are utilized &#116;&#104;&#114;&#111;&#117;&#103;&#104;&#111;&#117;&#116; medicine to bill health plans for medical services. The AMA issues these codes when new technologies and &#111;&#116;&#104;&#101;&#114; medical services enter medical practice and are established &#097;&#115; an accepted standard &#111;&#102; care by the physician specialty performing the service. </p>
