Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors such as escitalopram fluoxetine and sertraline. These are usually first-line drugs for depression. Drug therapy and psychotherapy are effective for most people with depression. A family doctor or psychiatrist can prescribe drugs to relieve symptoms. However, many people with depression also benefit from seeing a psychiatrist psychologist, or other mental health professional.

Lamotrigine may be the most effective mood stabilizer for depression in bipolar disorder, but it is less effective for mania. The starting dose of lamotrigine should be very low and increased very slowly over 4 weeks. The most commonly used mood stabilizer is lithium. The clinical effects of lithium have made it a widely used drug since it was discovered in the 1940s.

If an 1800-kcalorie diet contains 100 grams of fat, the percentage of kcal from the fat is: a. 20 %. b. 35 %. c. 50 %. d. 65 %.
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

It should be about 5.4% which adds up to about 100.8 calories. None of these answer options appear to be consistent with that

1,800*0.20=360 kcals

1,800*0.35=630 kcals

Anything higher than those values is much too high for fat intake.
