Objective: Depression is a psychiatric illness that can occur at any time of a person's life. Antidepressants are medications used in the first-line treatment of depression. Treatment of depression with antidepressants can be unfavorable due to the long duration of treatment, the development of resistance to treatment and the occurrence of side effects in the patient after taking antidepressants. Improvements to existing antidepressants are essential to increase the success rate of treatment.
Result and Discussion: One of the aims of drug research and development is to ensure more efficient use of drugs. When the antidepressants approved by the FDA in the last 11 years are analyzed, it is seen that most of the studies were carried out by preparing different dosage forms of previously developed drugs, using a specific isomer or developing allopregnanolone-like substances, which is a steroidal neuroactive substance.

2013-2024 YILLARI ARASINDA FDA ONAYI ALMIŞ ANTİDEPRESANLAR VE YENİ ANTİDEPRESAN İLAÇ GELİŞTİRME ÇALIŞMALARI

Öz

Amaç: Depresyon, insan hayatının herhangi bir döneminde ortaya çıkabilecek, psikiyatrik bir hastalıktır. Antidepresanlar, depresyonun birinci basamak tedavisinde kullanılan ilaçlardır. Depresyonun antidepresanlarla tedavisi, tedavi süresinin uzun olması, depresyonun tedaviye direnç geliştirmesi ve antidepresan kullandıktan sonra hastada yan etkilerin görülmesi nedeniyle olumsuz sonuçlanabilmektedir. Tedavide başarı oranının artması için mevcut antidepresanların geliştirilmesi şarttır.
Sonuç ve Tartışma: İlaç araştırma ve geliştirme çalışmalarının amaçlarından biri de ilaçların daha verimli kullanılmasını sağlamaktır. Son 11 yılda FDA tarafından onaylanan antidepresanlar incelendiğinde çoğunlukla daha önceden geliştirilmiş olan ilaçların farklı dozaj şekillerinin hazırlanmasıyla, spesifik bir izomer kullanılarak ya da steroid yapılı nöroaktif bir madde olan allopregnanolon benzeri maddeler geliştirilmesi şeklinde çalışmalar yapıldığı görülmektedir.
