Treatment-resistant depression is a significant public health concern; drug switching or augmentation often produce limited results. The authors hypothesized that fluoxetine could be augmented with olanzapine to successfully treat resistant depression.An 8-week double-blind study was conducted 28 patients who were diagnosed recurrent, nonbipolar, treatment-resistant without psychotic features. Subjects randomly assigned one of three groups: plus placebo, fluoxetine.Fluoxetine monotherapy...

Three aspects recovery measured: syndromal (DSM-IV criteria no longer met), symptomatic (Young Mania Rating Scale score </=5 Hamilton Depression </=8), functional...
