A sophisticated 3D medical illustration showing a frontal view of a human brain silhouette. The brain is color-coded with a gradient of cool greens on the left and warm pinks on the right. Transparent molecular structures, resembling nodes and connections in a neural network or chemical compounds, are overlaid across the brain. The surrounding space contains stylized representations of microorganisms, including green bacteria capsules and blue branching virus-like structures, suggesting a study of the gut-brain axis or neuroimmunology.

Psychoeducation is a psychosocial treatment that has been well documented as an adjunct to pharmacological therapy. However, there are only a few studies regarding its effectiveness on adult patients with major depressive disorder. Although the publications in this area are still very limited, the articles selected in this review suggest that psychoeducation is effective in improving the clinical course, treatment adherence, and psychosocial functioning of depressive patients.
