TL;DR: Macha root may alleviate SSRI‐induced sexual dysfunction, and there may be a dose‐related effect, and Maca may also have a beneficial effect on libido.

TL;DR: It is found that there are no significant differences in efficacy among these three treatment strategies among patients who had failed to respond adequately to 8 weeks of treatment with fluoxetine 20 mg/day, although the high-fluoxettine group was associated with nonsignificantly higher response rates in both partial responders and nonresponders.

TL;DR: This study supports prior research suggesting a specific panic disorder-bipolar disorder connection and suggests GAD may also be differentially associated with BPD, and suggests anxiety sensitivity and neuroticism did not differ by mood disorder type.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assessed personality disorders (PDs) among depressed outpatients by clinical interview before and after antidepressant treatment with fluoxetine to assess the degree of stability of PD diagnoses and determine whether changes in PD diagnoses across treatment are related to an improvement in depressive symptoms.

TL;DR: EPA demonstrated an advantage over placebo that did not reach statistical significance, possibly due to the small sample and low completer rates, which were the major study limitations.
