The authors present a review the literature concerning the use o f fluoxetine in the treatment o f major depression. Fluoxetine is one selective inhibiter o f the serotonine neuronal reuptake in the sinaptic cleft being so efficient as the tricyclic antidepressive in moderate to severe depressive conditions, but with /ess adverse efects due to a minimum affinity with other receptors presente there. The recomended dosage is 20mg daily and /arge doses have the same effectiveness with greater adverse effects beeing at reserved for monresponsive cases. Severa/ clinicai research demonstrate that fluoxetine is an effective safe and we/1 tolerated antidepressive in the treatment of major depression.
Os autores apresentam uma revisão de literatura quanto ao uso de fluoxetina no tratamento da depressão maior. A fluoxetina é um inibidor seletivo da recaptação neuronal de serotonina na fenda sináptica, sendo tão eficaz quanto os antidepressivos tricíclicos nos quadros depressivos moderados e leves, porém com menores efeitos adversos, devido à mínima afinidade com outros receptores ali presentes. A posologia é de 20 mg diários, sendo que doses mais elevadas têm a mesma eficácia e maiores efeitos adversos, reservando-se aos casos não responsivos. Inúmeras investigações clínicas indicam que a fluoxetina é um antidepressivo bem tolerado, efetivo e seguro no tratamento da depressão maior.
