Key Points:
- Modafinil has been shown to improve cognition in non-depressed populations.
- Modafinil has a potential role in the treatment of depression either as an adjunct or as monotherapy.
- The FDA approved vortioxetine for cognitive dysfunction in depression in 2016.
- Some evidence points to duloxetine and other SSRIs being equivalent in efficacy regarding attention and executive function in depression.
- About amphetamines, it is still open about whether stimulants can be effective as monotherapy for depression.
- Remember: Lisdexamfetamine should not be combined with SSRIs or SNRIs due to an increased risk of serotonin syndrome.
