The antidepressant Lexapro may not help heart failure patients suffering from depression.

 

Heart failure is a chronic disease where  the heart can’t pump enough blood to match body need. Symptoms of heart failure have negative impact on mood and cause depression. So treatment of depression in heart failure patients isn’t easy as treatment depressive patients without heart failure.

Antidepressants may just not be the right medications for heart failure patients, treatment of depression in heart failure patients should focus on treatment of heart failure itself to reduce symptoms of heart failure which are the major cause of depression.
