Data suggests that antidepressants are useful in the management of depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, sexual dysfunction, eating disorders, impulse control disorders, enuresis, aggression and some personality disorders. Research focusing on the usefulness of antidepressants in India has more or less followed the trends seen in the West. Most of the studies conducted in India have evaluated various antidepressants in depression. In this article, we review studies conducted in India on various antidepressants. The data suggests that antidepressants have been evaluated mainly in the acute phase treatment and rare studies have evaluated the efficacy in continuation phase treatment.
数据表明,抗抑郁药在治疗抑郁障碍、焦虑障碍、性功能障碍、饮食障碍、冲动控制障碍、遗尿、攻击行为和某些人格障碍方面是有用的。在印度,针对抗抑郁药有用性的研究或多或少地遵循了西方的趋势。在印度进行的大多数研究都评估了抗抑郁药在抑郁症中的各种应用。在本文中,我们回顾了在印度进行的各种抗抑郁药研究。数据表明,抗抑郁药主要在急性期治疗中进行了评估,很少有研究评估其在维持期治疗中的疗效。
