Please ask your doctor if TMS is right for you. You should not apply TMS if any of the following conditions apply: 

• You have implants such as cochlear implants, internal pulse generators, medication pumps, pacemakers or other implanted devices.

TMS is a safe form of treatment that has been cleared by FDA since 2008 for patients with depression who have failed to achieve satisfactory improvement from one prior antidepressant medication at or above the minimal effective dose and duration in the current episode. If you are unsatisfied with your current depression medication or worry about its side effects and are looking for a proven, drug-free alternative, ask your doctor about TMS.
