Tested medicine to prevent depression after hip or leg fractures
This trial studies whether a type of antidepressant medicine (a serotonin–norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor) can prevent depression after a lower-extremity fragility fracture that was treated with surgery. It’s mainly for older adults, and aims to see if starting this medicine early reduces later depression symptoms.
