Serzone has been studied in many clinical trials for the treatment of
depression. In theses studies, people taking Serzone had more improvement in their depression symptoms than those not taking the medication. This was also shown to be true for people who were hospitalized for their depression. Two long-term studies have shown that Serzone can also reduce the chance of depression relapse.
When and How to Take Serzone
Some general considerations for when and how to take Serzone include:
- Serzone comes in tablet form. It is taken by mouth, usually twice a day.
- It does not matter if you take Serzone with or without food. If the drug bothers your stomach, try taking it with food.
- Serzone should be taken at the same times each day to maintain an even level of the drug in your blood.
- For the medication to work properly, it must be taken as prescribed. Serzone will not work if you stop taking it.
The dose of Serzone that your healthcare provider recommends will vary depending on a number of factors, including:
- Your age
- Other medical conditions you may have
- Other medications you may currently be taking.
As is always the case, do not adjust your Serzone dose unless your healthcare provider specifically instructs you to do so.
