Antidepressants increase neurotransmitter activity in the brain, affecting mood and emotion through chemicals like serotonin and noradrenaline. Talk therapies often complement them.
Life Pharmacies provides confidential and compassionate support for individuals prescribed SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) for managing depression and anxiety.

DO YOU NEED SSRI ANTIDEPRESSANTS?
When prescribing antidepressants, healthcare providers consider factors such as the type and severity of illness, other medical conditions, current medications, past responses to antidepressants, potential side effects, and pregnancy or breastfeeding status. Finding the most effective antidepressant may involve trying different medications until the best fit is identified. Each individual will respond uniquely, so the best first step is to consult with your pharmacist or healthcare professional.
How Do SSRI Antidepressant Consultations Work?
We deliver assistance and advice in a private setting. If necessary, we may advise you to consult your healthcare provider for further assessment or treatment.
WHAT TO EXPECT AT AN SSRI ANTIDEPRESSANT CONSULTATION
- During the consultation, a pharmacist reviews the patient’s medication, explains how SSRIs work, discusses potential side effects, and provides guidance on adherence and managing expectations. This service helps patients feel informed and supported throughout their treatment journey, ensuring safe and effective use of their medication.
