註釋

Millions of Americans suffer from depression and anxiety. The exact causes of these conditions are not definitively known, but they can be treated effectively with medication, counseling, and other methods. Because the severity of these illnesses, varies and individuals react to medications differently, pharmaceutical companies have developed many different drugs for these conditions. These medications affect a variety of biochemical pathways and areas of the brain and are typically used in conjunction with counseling and therapy. Antidepressants and Antianxiety Drugs explores the benefits and drawbacks to these drugs. Drugs are part of everyday life. They can be found on the street, in school, and at home, and although many drugs are beneficial when used properly, the potential for abuse and misuse is great. Understanding Drugs provides a fact-based look at the most common legal and illegal drugs available today, explains how they work, and Identifies the risks and benefits of using them. Whether dealing with drugs of abuse, such as cocaine, heroin, and marijuana, or therapeutic drugs, such as antibiotics, antidepressants, and prescription pain relievers, the best route to staying safe and healthy is to be informed.
