Dear Reena,
Since beta-blocker (hipres) is a peripherally acting drug, it may not cause any depression. On the other hand, ventab may cause bp in higher doses. Check with your doctor about changing ventab to another antidepressant.

Sometimes the medications do not work alone and may need to be given in a combination of 2 to 4, augmenting their effects. So discuss with your psychiatrist and follow the treatment protocol for resistant symptoms. Good luck.
