Its treatment often includes antidepressant (AD) medications and a substantial proportion of pharmaceutically treated depression (PTD) does not respond adequately to treatment with two or more antidepressant (AD) medications despite adequate dose, duration, and adherence to the antidepressant medications . Such cases are considered to have treatment resistant depression (TRD) [4] and carry higher personal and societal costs than do treatment-responsive MDD
