Antidepressant efficacy of dextromethorphan/bupropion (Auvelity) versus placebo in the GEMINI clinical trial. [1] [3] [4] [5] The scores shown are the mean total depression scores on the MADRS over 6 weeks. Only 124/156 patients completed 6 weeks of Auvelity while 150/162 patients completed 6 weeks of placebo, consistent with a high rate of ...
Post-SSRI sexual dysfunction (PSSD) [62] [63] refers to a set of symptoms reported by some people who have taken SSRIs or other serotonin reuptake-inhibiting (SRI) drugs, in which sexual dysfunction symptoms persist for at least three months [64] [65] [66] after ceasing to take the drug. The status of PSSD as a legitimate and distinct pathology ...
Lack of effectiveness. While antidepressants are largely effective at treating major depressive disorder (MDD), not all people experience improvements after they start taking an antidepressant ...
[13] [46] [49] This is in apparent contrast to SSRIs and SNRIs, which appear to require a minimum of 70 to 80% occupancy for antidepressant efficacy. [13] [46] [50] These findings are suggestive that the antidepressant effects of vortioxetine may be mediated by serotonin receptor interactions in addition to serotonin reuptake inhibition.
The evidence overall supports the effectiveness of bupropion over placebo for the treatment of depression. [41] [18] [42] Some peer-reviewed studies suggest the quality of evidence is low. [42] [18] Some meta-analyses report that bupropion has an at-most small effect size for depression. [43] [44] [42] [45] One meta-analysis reported a large ...
A study led by the National Institute of Mental Health in Bethesda, Maryland, has now found that practising mindfulness-based stress reduction may be as effective as escitalopram (Lexapro — an ...
Serotonergic-noradrenergic antidepressant drugs may have a modest efficacy advantage compared to SSRIs in treating major depressive disorder (MDD), [43] but are slightly less well tolerated. [44] Further research is needed to examine the possible differences of efficacy in specific MDD sub-populations or for specific MDD symptoms, between these ...
