title: A case of sequential anti-stress medication in a patient with major depression resistant to amine-reuptake inhibitors.
abstract: One of the predictive factors of treatment-resistant depression is the syndrome of relative insulin resistance, i.e. adipositas, mild hypertension and a family history of type-2 diabetes. Such a case is here reported with a good outcome to anti-stress medication, including ketoconazole and lithium.
