Summary

This study looks at whether adding magnesium to a standard antidepressant (SSRI) helps reduce symptoms of major depression more than the antidepressant alone. About 50 adults with major depressive disorder will take either an SSRI plus magnesium or an SSRI alone for 4 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in depression severity using a standard questionnaire.
