Thumbs up Drugs for depression
Hi All,
As MDS Beacon reported there is a study at ASH showing positive results for treatment with so called SSRI drugs for depression in MDS patients. SSRI treatment promotes normalization of deranged proinflammatory cytokines in patients diagnosed with depression such as TNF α and IL12. https://ash.confex.com/ash/2012/webp...aper54539.html
Kind regards
