... outcomes. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether Bcl1 polymorphisms of GRs are associated with the antidepressant effect of milnacipran, a serotonin noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor (SNRI), and fluvoxamine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), in Japanese patients with depression...

... an association between abnormalities in neuronal nitric oxide synthases (nNOS) and mood disorders. Therefore, we studied the association of nNOS gene (NOS1) and mood disorders and the efficacy of fluvoxamine treatment in Japanese MDD patients. Materials and Methods: Using a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP...

... Rev-erbα gene (NR1D1) and the efficacy of fluvoxamine treatment in 118 Japanese patients with major depressive disorder. Methods: The scores of the MDD patients in this study on the 17 items of the Structured Interview Guide for the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (SIGH-D) were 12 or higher. We...

...F. Brambilla; A. Draisci; A. Peirone; M. Brunetta Fifteen women with bulimia nervosa were treated with a 4-month course of combined cognitive-behavioral, nutritional and antidepressant therapy (5 with amineptine and 10 with fluvoxamine). Patients were monitored before and after 1, 2 and 4 months...

...Mariangela Gasperini; Flavia Gatti; Laura Bellini; Roberta Anniverno; E. Smeraldi The efficacy of fluvoxamine was compared to that of amitriptyline in a double-blind 6-week fixed-dose trial of 56 inpatients with major depressive episode. The two drugs were comparable in their antidepressant...

... antidepressants in decreasing order in accordance with their relative (pro)convulsive properties gives:amitriptyline > mianserin >> imipramine > desmethylimipramine > viloxazine >> maprotiline >> zimelidine > clovoxamine > nomifensine = fluvoxamine. 19 2 2008 © 1984 S...

...Y.D. Lapierre; R.B. Rastogi; R.L. Singhal The effects of a relatively new antidepressant drug, fluvoxamine, were compared with those produced by chlorimipramine on the 5-hydroxytryptamine system in rat brain. Daily treatment with fluvoxamine (25 mg/kg, i.p.) and an equivalent dose...

...Nobuhisa Ueda; Reiji Yoshimura; Koji Shinkai; Yumi Sakata; Jun Nakamura We investigated the association between selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs; paroxetine or fluvoxamine) and nausea with regard to plasma 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (p5-HIAA) levels. Forty-eight patients meeting...

... no accurate methods to predict its incidence. The authors first investigated whether a functional polymorphism in the monoamine oxidase A (MAOA-VNTR) and a –1438G/A polymorphism in the promoter region of the 5-HT 2A gene were associated with the incidence of nausea induced by fluvoxamine. Fluvoxamine...

...Reiji Yoshimura; Nobuhisa Ueda; Jun Nakamura; Seiji Eto; Masakazu Matsushita We examined the relationships between plasma fluvoxamine concentrations and plasma levels of cotinine and caffeine, respectively, under steady-state conditions in 30 patients who met DSM-IV criteria for a major depressive...

.... The control group consisted of 11 healthy volunteers (mean age ± SD 39.90 ± 13.39 years; 2 females and 9 males). Patients were treated with fluvoxamine (FVX) 100–300 mg daily. Clinical assessment was performed using the Hamilton Rating Scales for Anxiety and Depression (HRS-A; HRS-D) and the Clinical Global...

.... Tryptophan/large neutral amino acids ratio (trp/LNAAs) was significantly lower in depressed patients. Fluvoxamine treatment did not influence plasma and platelet levels of amino acids or trp/LNAAs ratio. 18 4 1998 1998 Copyright / Drug Dosage / Disclaimer Copyright: All rights reserved...
