Clinicians who work with adults face two types of challenges when it comes to vaccination: staying up to date on recommendations for the influenza, pneumococcal, hepatitis A and B, zoster, and other vaccines; and overcoming systemic obstacles to putting practises into place that boost vaccination rates. Although adult vaccination rates are still below average, there have been many encouraging developments recently. In older persons, new high-dose and adjuvanted influenza vaccines may lessen influenza complications by enhancing immune response. The novel recombinant zoster vaccine is substantially more effective than the live zoster vaccine at preventing zoster outbreaks and postherpetic neuralgia. Giving an infant the pertussis vaccine during the third trimester of pregnancy may prevent 50% to 90% of infant pertussis infections. A novel, adjuvanted hepatitis B vaccine that takes less time to complete (1 vs. 6 months) could. One of the top 10 public health accomplishments of the twenty-first century, according to experts, is the decline in diseases that can be prevented by vaccination.

Antidepressants are a class of medications that are primarily used to treat depression and anxiety disorders. Sexual dysfunction, eating disorders, impulse control issues, enuresis, aggressiveness, and some personality disorders are all treated with this class of medications. Many types of antidepressants have become available in India throughout the years, some of which have lasted the test of time and are still in use, and others which are no longer marketed or are no longer a clinician's preference. Antidepressant research in India has mostly followed western tendencies; nevertheless, some of the antidepressant medications that have been marketed have not been studied as extensively as others. In India, the majority of studies on antidepressants in depression have been undertaken. Antidepressants have been studied in a limited number of illnesses other than depressive disorders Antidepressant efficacy trials can be divided into studies evaluating an antidepressant efficacy of an antidepressant with placebo as a comparator, comparing efficacy of two active drugs, and studies evaluating antidepressants with other treatment modalities such as electro-convulsive therapy or psychological treatment.
