I was taking antidepressants several years ago, but I'm not taking them currently. Can I get my medical back?
The FAA medical application asks if you "currently" use any medication. If you have a past history of depression or any other condition that was treated with an antidepressant, and you have been off medications for at least 90 days, reissuance of a medical certificate is certainly possible. You will need to have a report from your treating doctor summarizing your condition, how it was treated, how long it was treated, the date medicine was discontinued, and your current status. If the symptoms have not recurred and you remain medication-free, the FAA will probably be able to find you qualified for a medical certificate.
