Course Description: |
Statement of Need: Among patients with major depressive disorder, comorbid anxiety disorders have been reported at 58% in the United States. This overlap between depression and the spectrum of anxiety disorders is associated with increased severity of symptoms, greater social impairment and poorer treatment outcomes. This layered comorbidity may also complicate the work of the clinician who must make an accurate diagnosis followed by an effective treatment plan. The psychLINK experts will explore the challenges presented by the overlap between major depressive and anxiety disorders and present clinicians with treatment options to improve patient outcomes. This activity was supported by an unrestricted educational grant from Pfizer, U.S. Pharmaceuticals. |
