Resumen

Los modelos de prescripción de antidepresivos y los factores que influyen en la elección del antidepresivo para el tratamiento de la depresión se estudiaron en el estudio de los Factores que Influyen en la Investigación de los Criterios de Valoración de la Depresión (FINDER), un estudio prospectivo de observación realizado en 12 países europeos con 3.468 adultos sobre el comienzo de la medicación antidepresiva en el primer episodio de depresión o en un nuevo episodio de depresión recurrente. Los inhibidores selectivos de la recaptación de serotonina (ISRS) son los antidepresivos más prescritos más frecuentemente (63,3% de los pacientes), seguidos de los inhibidores de la recaptación de serotonina-noradrenalina (IRSN, 13,6%), pero hubo una variación considerable entre los distintos países. Debemos destacar que se prescribieron antidepresivos tricíclicos y tetracíclicos (ATC) al 26,5% de los pacientes en Alemania. La elección del antidepresivo prescrito estaba bajo una influencia muy fuerte del uso anterior de antidepresivos, que se asoció considerablemente con la prescripción de un ISRS (CP 0,64; IC 95% 0,54, 0,76), un IRSN (CP 1,49; 1C 95% 1,18, 1,88) o una combinación de antidepresivos (CP 2,78; IC 95% 1,96, 3,96). Los factores del médico (edad, sexo, especialidad) y de los pacientes (gravedad de la depresión, edad, educación, tabaquismo, número de enfermedades físicas y síndromes funcionales actuales) se asociaron con la eleccción del antidepresivo inicial en algunos casos. Para concluir, la prescripción de antidepresivos varía en función del país, y el tipo de antidepresivo escogido está bajo la influencia de factores relacionados con el médico y con el paciente.
