Patrick McGrath, MD at Columbia University said something to me that I found very helpful: For every new medication that becomes available, a certain percentage of previously refractory cases of depression are successfully treated. The release of venlafaxine (Effexor) is a great example of this. The percentage of TRD (treatment resistant depression) cases that responded to venlafaxine was about 30% according to one study.
