These medicines are all licensed for the treatment of depression. The following antidepressants from this chapter have been excluded: Flupenthixol, Levomilnacripan, Oxitriptan. See github discussion for further details. Trazodone and Mianserin (both from BNF Chapter 040301) have also been included in this codelist. This codelist does not contain Bupropion, because this is not licensed in the UK for depression.
