Dopesick Deja Vu? The SSRI conversation you need to hear
This time Nik is joined by Dr Alastair Santhouse, a consultant neuropsychiatrist at the Maudsley Hospital in London.
SSRIs are on the agenda, as featured on the BBC's 'Panorama -The Antidepressant Story.' They consider the efficacy and side effects of SSRIs, the challenge of withdrawal symptoms, and the evolving perspectives within the medical community. Why might some viewers get echoes of 'Dopesick' when watching it?
There's also the usual look at the medical news headlines and what's on our radar.
