Do dog antidepressants work as well on humans?
I work as a veterinary asst. at an animal clinic and my boss has a lot of dog antidepressants. Well the problem is that I have felt very depressed for months and I can't afford to see a doctor or buy pills. I don't have health insurance. So I was wondering if those dog antidepressants would help me out. My boss won't notice if they are gone.

First of all, stealing from any pharmacy, even a veterinary pharmacy, is quite illegal. And yes, even though you may not be aware of it, there are many ways for the veterinarian to check to make sure drug stocks are current and consistent.

Second, there are assistance programs if you need help and are feeling depressed. Please try calling:

1-800-273-TALK

They can put you in touch with counseling and medication, even if you can't pay for it.

Finally, to answer your question, veterinary medications are often held to the same consumer standards that human medications are. But there's no way to know what sorts of medications would work best for you, and dosages would be a total guess. I suppose, if you knew what medication you needed and the dose, you could extrapolate how many pills you'd need. However, antidepressants take months to take effect, do you really think you could get away with it for months? I don *not* condone this practice at all.

There's always an alternative. Please call someone and ask for help. The medications most people take these days are cheap and can easily be given away for free.
