Background. Persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) is a common vestibular disorder. This study was conducted to assess whether the addition of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) could significantly improve the efficacy and acceptability of sertraline in treating PPPD. Methods. PPPD patients were recruited and randomly assigned to control and experiment groups. Patients in both groups received sertraline 50–200 mg/day, and only patients in the experiment group received CBT (twice a week, one hour per time). The treatment was continued for eight weeks. At baseline, week 2, week 4, and week 8, the 25-item Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS), and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) were used to assess the self-perceived handicapping effects caused by PPPD, anxiety, and depressive symptoms, respectively. The dose of sertraline used and the adverse events in both groups were recorded and analyzed. Results. In total, 91 PPPD patients were randomly assigned to the control group n=45 and experiment group n=46. After eight weeks of treatment, the average DHI scores, HDRS scores, and HARS scores were significantly decreased in both groups. But compared to the control group, the experiment group had significantly lower average DHI score, HDRS score, and HARS score at weeks 4 and 8. Moreover, the dose of sertraline used in the experiment group was significantly lower than that in the control group, and adverse events occurred more frequently in the control group than in the experiment group (48.9% versus 26.1%, p=0.025). Conclusion. These results demonstrated that the addition of CBT could significantly improve the efficacy and acceptability of sertraline in treating PPPD and reduce the dose of sertraline used.

Method. Qusai experimental (pretest-posttest) research design was used in the present study. Females (age range; 25-40 years) suffering from moderate level of major depressive disorder were selected through random and stratified sampling strategy. Demographic sheet, DSM-5 checklist, visual analogue scale and beck depression inventory were used as an assessment measure in this study. Results. Statistical analysis revealed significant results. Findings showed that cognitive behavioral therapy alleviated depression symptoms among females with major depressive disorder. Females who received cognitive behavioural therapies scored lower on the Beck Depression Inventory than females who did not get any interventions, according to the findings. This suggests that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is useful for ladies suffering from serious depression. Novelty/Originality of The Study. The main goals of the first treatment interview develop a warm collaborative therapy connection, identify particular problem sets and associated goals, psycho-educate the patient about the cognitive model and vicious cycle that keeps depression alive, and give the patient an idea about future treatment methods. CBT is divided into three sections: beginning treatment, behavioural interventions, and working with negative automatic thoughts, used cognitive restructuring and ending sessions. Implications. The current treatment will demonstrate significant decreases in depressive symptoms and endorsement of faulty metacognitive beliefs between baseline and posttreatment, as well as, in the follow-up.
