Letter to the editor: Improvement of Antidepressant-Induced Sweating with As-required Benztropine

Dear Editor:

Antidepressant-induced excessive sweating (ADIES) is a common antidepressant-related side effect, and its prevalence is estimated to range from 4 to 22 percent.[1] Adverse effects are a common reason for nonadherence and discontinuation of antidepressant medication, and alleviating these side effects may improve adherence and promote positive outcomes.
