Loof et al. (1995) reported the use of carbamazepine (300-1200 mg/day, serum levels 10-11.5 pg/mL) in 28 children and adolescents with sexual abuse histories. By treatment end, 22 of 28 patients were asymptomatic of PTSD. The remaining six were significantly improved in all PTSD symptoms except for continued abuse-related nightmares. Half of this cohort had com-orbid ADHD, depression, ODD or polysubstance abuse and were treated with concomitant medications, e.g., methylphenidate, clonidine, sertraline, fluoxetine, or imipramine.

The meta-analysis of all studies comparing clomipramine or SRIs with placebo for the treatment of OCD found that the active drug produced a better result in every trial. We then calculated the effect size and the statistical significance for clomipramine alone and fluvoxamine alone. Their results showed a highly significant effect for both drugs (Table 13-10 and Table 13-11). There were also several studies with sertraline, fluoxetine, and paroxetine that demonstrated similar results (219, 220, 221, 222. 223,. 224, 225 and 226).

SSRIs are widely used for treatment of depression, as well as, for example, panic disorders and obsessive—compulsive disorder. These dmgs are well recognized as clinically effective antidepressants having an improved side-effect profile as compared to the TCAs and irreversible MAO inhibitors. Indeed, these dmgs lack the anticholinergic, cardiovascular, and sedative effects characteristic of TCAs. Their main adverse effects include nervousness /anxiety, nausea, diarrhea or constipation, insomnia, tremor, dizziness, headache, and sexual dysfunction. The most commonly prescribed SSRIs for depression are fluoxetine (31), fluvoxamine (32), sertraline (52), citalopram (53), and paroxetine (54). SSRIs together represent about one-fifth of total worldwide antidepressant unit sales. 

Selective serotonine reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) is an abbreviation for the class of antidepressants known as the Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors. Examples of SSRIs include fluoxetine, paroxetine, citalopram, and sertraline. These drugs selectively inhibit the serotonin transporter thus prolonging the synaptic lifespan of the neurotransmitter serotonin. 

Decision analytic models have been constmcted to compare the costs of TCAs with those of SSRIs and other compounds. These comparisons have included imipramine or amitriptyline versus paroxetine or sertraline (Stewart, 1994) imipramine versus paroxetine Qonsson and Bebbington, 1994 McFarland, 1994 Lapierre et al, 1995) fluoxetine versus amitriptyline, clomipramine, doxepin and imipramine (Le Pen et al, 1994) venlafaxine versus amitriptyline, desipramine. 

Differences exist in primary care between the patterns of prescribing fluoxetine, paroxetine or sertraline, which may influence cost outcomes. Sertraline-treated patients are more likely to have their dose increased (Sclar et al, 1995 Donoghue, 1998), and to drop out of treatment prematurely (Donoghue, 1998). The apparent need to titrate doses upwards with sertraline may require more involvement by the clinician and may delay response to treatment, with resultant increases in direct health costs (Sclar et al, 1995). However, these economic findings are retrospective, may suffer from selection bias, and being derived from HMO patients may not be generalizable to other populations confirmation in further studies is required.

Because the SSRIs are derived from different chemical groups, their receptor interactions vary from compound to compound but, apart from paroxetine, none of them shows any appreciable binding to muscarinic receptors, a prime objective of their development. However, compared with other SSRIs, fluoxetine binds with moderately high affinity to human 5-HT2A (.K) 280 nM) and 5-HT2C receptors (Aij 55 nM) sertraline is a relatively potent ligand for ai-adrenoceptors, 2-adrenoceptors and Dj receptors and citalopram shows appreciable binding to 5-HTia, oc]-adrenoceptors and Hi receptors (Table 20.6 Stanford 1996). The extent to which any of these receptor interactions affects the efficacy of these compounds is not known.

The first-line therapeutic options for PMDD include the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) such as fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, sertraline, paroxetine, and citalopram. These agents can be given either continuously or only during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, i.e., initiated at the time of ovulation and discontinued on the first day of menses.
