NCT ID NCT06799078

First seen May 09, 2026 ยท Last updated May 09, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) face more barriers to starting or sticking with antidepressants after a one-time psychiatric consultation for depression. Researchers will survey 60 adults diagnosed with depression three months after their consultation to see if race affects medication recommendations, starting or switching drugs, dosage, and adherence. The goal is to understand these differences and help create fairer treatment strategies.
