Sandra has been diagnosed with depression.If Sandra is given a drug treatment,which of the following is her doctor most likely to prescribe

A)  Thorazine or chlorpromazine
B)  Prozac, Paxil, or Zoloft 
C)  Valium or Xanax
D)  lithium

Prozac, Paxil, and Zoloft are all commonly prescribed anti-depressants, known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), that can effectively treat depression. Thorazine and chlorpromazine are typically used to treat psychotic disorders, while Valium and Xanax are benzodiazepines used to treat anxiety. Lithium is used to treat bipolar disorder, not depression. Therefore, the most appropriate drug treatment for Sandra's depression is likely to be one of the SSRIs.
