I agree with seldom and the stats for effectiveness have been around for some time and been consistent... nothing really new there.
Also, the older versus newer generations of meds have held to the same rate of efficacy as far as I can tell. The continued use for at least six months of a successful med has been advocated for as long as I can remember also.
I think the title says it all and is the goal of the educational offering....
To use an analogy - all shoes might have the same % of effectiveness for what the goal is to one's feet but their modes and "styles" and suitability can be very different and most individual. Therefore, they are not all the same.
The offering, to me, seems to go for making treatment plans more individual rather than less. I believe if the thought is: "they're all the same" why have individualized and choices treatments? I don't think that's what the CEU article is saying...
