Show Notes

NICE published its last guideline on depression in 2009. Since that time, the prevalence of depression has increased, especially among vulnerable adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. NICE published a new guideline in June 2022 to reflect this. In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson looks at the new recommendations on managing depression in primary care, along with services providing psychological therapies that update and replace the 2009 guideline. Among the topics covered are treatments for first depressive episodes, advice on preventing relapse and withdrawing from antidepressant treatment.
