Major Depressive Disorder (DSM-V) – Current Treatment – Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis – Major Depressive Disorder (US)
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a condition heavily treated with an array of drug classes. Although the MDD drug market is dominated by generic therapies, the heterogeneous response of MDD patients to current drugs and the need for more effective therapies create opportunities for branded agents (e.g., Trintellix [Lundbeck / Takeda], Rexulti [Otsuka / Lundbeck], Vraylar [AbbVie], Spravato [Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine], Auvelity [Axsome Therapeutics]) to be incorporated into the treatment algorithm. Given MDD’s highly competitive landscape encompassing both long-established and newer-to-market drugs, it is important for drug marketers and developers to understand physicians’ prescribing trends.
