Why does Parogen stop working after a few months?

There are a number of potential reasons why your antidepressant seems to be expiring: 1) other medications – drug interactions are known to interfere with the effects of medications. In the case of antidepressants, potential culprits are antibiotics and steroids. Both can simply make an antidepressant less effective. What's more, steroids can have a direct effect on mood. 2) stimulants - both tobacco smoke and alcohol can also interfere with the action of antidepressants. 3) another disease that can worsen depression - a typical example of this is hypothyroidism, or bipolar disorder. 4) additional stress - Work pressure? Family problems? Big changes in everyday life, such as movement or a new job? Any type of added stress can change brain chemistry enough to reduce the effectiveness of the drug used. 5) the development of tolerance to drugs - it is possible that the receptors in the brain, which are affected by the drug, have become less sensitive to it. If you are concerned about the effect of the drug, it is best to talk to your doctor about it. It is difficult to assess what may be the reason for the reduced effectiveness of therapy without knowing your medical records. Please remember that pharmacotherapy has a supportive effect on the treatment of depression, usually affecting only its symptoms. Proper treatment is psychotherapy, which deals with the causes and is designed to lead the patient to healthy functioning, also without the use of medications. If you have not undertaken (apart from taking medication) psychotherapy, I encourage you to make an appointment with an appropriate specialist.
