It is important to consult with a physician about the potential risks to your health and personal injury that are associated with the type of depression medication that you are prescribed. You have to understand the risks fully before you consume the potentially risky medication.
Medications that alter one’s state of mind are often a risky investment in and of themselves due to the nature of the medication.
