Antidepressants with anti-inflammatory properties may be useful in long COVID depression.
Drugs & Therapy Perspectives 2022 December 13
Long COVID, which is characterised by the presence of persistent symptoms following a COVID infection, may also cause long COVID depression (LCD). Although the risk factors for LCD are not directly characterised, prior mental health visits were associated with an increased risk for long COVID, whereas antidepressant use was not.

Limited evidence suggests that selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors may also be effective in the treatment of LCD.
