TED (Trazodone Effectiveness in Depression): effectiveness of trazodone extended-release in subjects with unsatisfactory response to SSRIs
CONCLUSIONS: The results showed that effectiveness of trazodone XR in the treatment of patients with MDD who did not respond to SSRIs administered as first-line treatment of a particular depressive episode was comparable to that noted in patients treated de novo. Furthermore, trazodone XR effectively improved depression, anxiety, insomnia, anhedonia and psychosocial functioning in both studied groups. Additionally, trazodone XR as secondline treatment improved sexual functions in male subjects previously treated with SSRIs.PMID:38484384 | DOI:10.12740/PP/OnlineFirst/174432 (Source: Psychiatria Polska)
