You should know that medication has many side effects so you need psychological counseling and psychological autosuggestion therapy through the online process for three weeks without any medication for the permanent solution of your psychological problems of depression. You can contact me for this on Lybrate website. Thank you.

Dear Reena, Since beta-blocker (hipres) is a peripherally acting drug, it may not cause any depression. On the other hand, ventab may cause bp in higher doses. Check with your doctor about changing ventab to another antidepressant.
