The treatment of depression usually remits in6-9 months and than medicines can be discontinued gradually. But compliance need to be taken care of. If again the problems comes than usually the course goes for next two yrs and still recurrent depression is there than the medicines have to be continued for next 5 yr to life time varying person to person.
