Is it true that if the antidepressant did not give the first effects after a month, it means that it does not work?

When using an antidepressant, it is assumed that the first positive effects appear in 2-4 weeks of systematic use, the full dose of the drug. The maximum effect usually appears after 6-8 weeks. Therefore, when using antidepressants, it is necessary to work closely with the doctor, discuss progress and report no effects. The use of antidepressants often looks like the first medication is not suitable for the patient and the treatment needs to be modified. I encourage you to contact your doctor, who will assess what drug it is and in what dose it is used and whether the therapeutic effect has been observed.
