| Core Tip |
Drug therapy, psychotherapy, and combined drug-psychological therapy are available treatment options for elderly patients with depressive disorders; however, therapeutic efficacy remains suboptimal. This study evaluated phototherapy combined with agomelatine in elderly patients with depressive disorders. The findings indicate that the combined therapy demonstrated significant treatment efficacy, effectively alleviated anxiety and depression, improved sleep quality, regulated neurotransmitter levels, and suppressed oxidative stress, without increasing adverse side effects. |
