Abstract
This paper provides a reply to the Wong (AJHM 24:3;97-9) critique of the Rapaport et al (2011) study which found no significant difference between St John's Wort, citalopram and placebo in treating minor depression. Additionally we address the reasons why St John's wort and antidepressant depression studies are increasingly not demonstrating efficacy over placebo, and provide potential solutions.
