The following medications should be used cautiously in people with current or prior depression, or those who are otherwise at high risk for depression:

  • Barbiturates
  • Vigabatrin (Sabril)
  • Topiramate (Topamax)
  • Flunarizine
  • Corticosteroids
  • Mefloquine
  • Efavirenz (Sustiva)
  • Inteferon-alpha

The review also covered drugs that may cause depression — the evidence was not as strong as the prior list.
