HESI Psychiatric Mental Health NP - Features Sample Questions

Which of the following would be a first-line treatment for your client who suffers from major depression?





Correct Answer:
selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors

when treating major depression, the primary goal is to alleviate symptoms, improve quality of life, and reduce the risk of relapse. medications, particularly antidepressants, play a pivotal role in the management of major depression. among the various types of antidepressants available, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (ssris) are typically recommended as the first-line treatment option. this preference for ssris is attributed to their favorable safety profile, tolerability, and effectiveness in treating a wide range of depressive symptoms.

ssris function by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain. serotonin is a neurotransmitter that is involved in the regulation of mood, emotion, and sleep. by preventing the reuptake of serotonin into neurons, ssris help maintain higher levels of this neurotransmitter in the brain, which can help alleviate depressive symptoms. common examples of ssris include fluoxetine, sertraline, and citalopram.

although ssris are highly effective for many patients, they are not suitable for everyone and can cause side effects in some individuals. common side effects include nausea, headaches, and sexual dysfunction. however, these side effects are generally less severe compared to those caused by other antidepressants, such as tricyclic antidepressants (tcas).

tricyclic antidepressants, while effective, are usually considered as a second-line treatment due to their more pronounced side effect profile. tcas can cause side effects such as dizziness, dry mouth, constipation, and weight gain. furthermore, they pose a higher risk in overdose situations than ssris. therefore, they are generally prescribed when ssris are not effective or not tolerated by the patient.

in addition to medication, psychotherapy is also a valuable treatment for major depression. therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (cbt) or interpersonal therapy (ipt) are often used alone or in combination with medication depending on the severity of the depression and individual patient needs. group therapy can also be beneficial as it provides support and encourages interactions with others who are facing similar challenges.

in conclusion, ssris are the preferred first-line treatment for major depression due to their efficacy and milder side effect profile. however, treatment plans should be individualized, considering the specific needs and medical history of the patient. in cases where ssris are not suitable or effective, alternative treatments like tcas, psychotherapy, or group therapy may be explored.
