Duloxetine is the newest addition to the US antidepressant market. In this case series, we describe what appears to be an unusual adverse reaction to duloxetine: an acute dysphoric response. This response occurred in five patients (four women and one man, all outpatients, ages 37-73 years) and manifested with either the initiation of the medication or during a dosage increase (all doses were 60mg per day or less). Among all patients, this unexpected response promptly subsided with either a dosage reduction or discontinuation of the medication. These observations suggest that a small minority of patients taking duloxetine may develop acute and dysphoric responses to the medication, which may be addressed with either a dosage reduction or discontinuation of duloxetine.
度洛西汀是美国抗抑郁药市场上的最新药物。在本病例系列中,我们描述了一种似乎不常见的度洛西汀不良反应:急性烦躁反应。这种反应发生在5名患者(4名女性和1名男性,均为门诊患者,年龄37 - 73岁)中,在开始用药或剂量增加期间出现(所有剂量均为每日60毫克或更低)。在所有患者中,这种意外反应通过减少剂量或停药迅速消退。这些观察结果表明,一小部分服用度洛西汀的患者可能会对该药物产生急性烦躁反应,这可以通过减少度洛西汀剂量或停药来解决。
