Abstract
Adequate SSRI monotherapy does not produce a sufficient clinical effect in some patients, and about 30% of patients do not respond to therapy at all. Favorable experience of combined prescription of SSRIs with various nootropic (neuroprotective) agents has been described in the literature.The aim of the study was to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of hopantenic acid as an adjuvant therapy for depression. We obtained significant data that inclusion of hopantenic acid at a dose of 2000 mg per day in a 12-week complex antidepressant therapy with paroxetine (20 mg per day) statistically significantly reduces the severity of depression symptoms. The drug's effect is achieved by improving patients' cognitive functions, reducing anxiety symptoms and side effects of SSRIs. Improved efficacy and tolerability of antidepressant therapy with hopantenic acid in the long term will allow to achieve more significant improvement in the quality of life of patients.
