==Medical Therapy==
[[Antidepressant]] drugs include [[selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor]]s, such as [[escitalopram oxalate]] (Lexapro), [[citalopram]] (Celexa), [[fluoxetine]] (Prozac), [[paroxetine]] (Paxil), and [[sertraline]] (Zoloft), are the primary medications considered for patients, having fewer side effects than the older [[monoamine oxidase inhibitor]]s (MAOIs).

When treated with monotherapy for depression, approximately 30% of patients have remission of symptoms while 50% have a response to medications.<ref name="pmid16390886">{{cite journal |author=Trivedi MH, Rush AJ, Wisniewski SR, ''et al'' |title=Evaluation of outcomes with citalopram for depression using measurement-based care in STAR*D: implications for clinical practice |journal=The American journal of psychiatry |volume=163 |issue=1 |pages=28–40 |year=2006 |pmid=16390886 |doi=10.1176/appi.ajp.163.1.28}}</ref>

* The original VAST-D trial, that did not include [[aripiprazole]], confirms that augmenting with bupropion is the most effective of options other than augmentation with [[aripiprazole]]. In this trial, either adding sustained-release [[bupropion]] ("bupropion was 200 mg per day during weeks 1 and 2, increasing to 300 mg per day by week 4 and to 400 mg per day (the final dose) during week 6") or [[buspirone]] (up to 60 mg per day) for augmentation as a second drug can cause remission in approximately 30% of patients ([[bupropion]] may be more effective than [[buspirone]])<ref name="pmid16554526"/>, while switching medications can achieve remission in about 25% of patients<ref name="pmid16554525">{{cite journal |author=Rush AJ, Trivedi MH, Wisniewski SR, ''et al'' |title=Bupropion-SR, sertraline, or venlafaxine-XR after failure of SSRIs for depression |journal=N.

* The PReDICT trial found that among patients who initially were treated with either an SSRI or CBT, remission was increased when the opposite treatment (CBT or SSRI) was added to non-remitters<ref name="pmid30764648">{{cite journal| author=Dunlop BW, LoParo D, Kinkead B, Mletzko-Crowe T, Cole SP, Nemeroff CB et al.| title=Benefits of Sequentially Adding Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy or Antidepressant Medication for Adults With Nonremitting Depression. | journal=Am J Psychiatry | year= 2019 | volume=  | issue=  | pages= appiajp201818091075 | pmid=30764648 | doi=10.1176/appi.ajp.2018.18091075 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=30764648  }} </ref>.
* The newer VAST-D trial found that augmentation with [[aripiprazole]] is effective.<ref name="pmid28697253"/> The dose of aripiprazole  was 2 mg of with titration to 5, 10, or 15 mg daily as guided by measurement-based care using the PHQ-9.<ref name="pmid28697253"/> ''However'', aripiprazole led to more [[adverse drug reaction]]s including somnolence, akathisia, and weight gain. The second most effective was augmentation with [[buproprion]] starting at 150 mg sustained release to 300 mg or 400 mg daily as guided by measurement-based care using the PHQ-9.
