Antidepressant Discontinuation Syndrome CHRISTOPHER H
Antidepressant Discontinuation Syndrome CHRISTOPHER H. WARNER, MAJ, MC, USA, Winn Army Community Hospital, Fort Stewart, Georgia WILLIAM BOBO, LCDR, MC, USN, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Bethesda, Maryland CAROLYNN WARNER, MAJ, MC, USA, Winn Army Community Hospital, Fort Stewart, Georgia SARA REID, CPT, USAF, MC, Bolling Air Force Base, Washington, D.C. JAMES RACHAL, MAJ, USAF, MC, Ehrling Berquist Air Force Hospital, Offutt Air Force Base, Omaha, Nebraska Antidepressant discontinuation syndrome occurs in approximately 20 percent of patients after abrupt discontinuation of an antidepressant medication that was taken for at least six weeks. Typical symptoms of antidepressant discontinuation syndrome include flu-like symptoms, insomnia, nausea, imbalance, sensory disturbances, and hyperarousal. These symptoms usu- ally are mild, last one to two weeks, and are rapidly extinguished with reinstitution of antide- pressant medication. Antidepressant discontinuation syndrome is more likely with a longer duration of treatment and a shorter half-life of the treatment drug. A high index of suspicion should be maintained for the emergence of discontinuation symptoms, which should prompt close questioning regarding accidental or purposeful self-discontinuation of medication. Before antidepressants are prescribed, patient education should include warnings about the potential problems associated with abrupt discontinuation. Education about this common and likely underrecognized clinical phenomenon will help prevent future episodes -
A Novel Atypical Antidepressant That May Provide New Insights Into the Biomolecular Basis of Depression
Recent Patents on CNS Drug Discovery, 2006, 1, 29-41 29 Tianeptine: A Novel Atypical Antidepressant that May Provide New Insights into the Biomolecular Basis of Depression Christiaan B. Brink*, Brian H. Harvey and Linda Brand Division of Pharmacology, North-West University (PUK), Potchefstroom, 2520, South Africa Received: July 29, 2005; Accepted: September 05, 2005; Revised: September 12, 2005 Abstract: Tianeptine, an atypical antidepressant patented and developed by Servier, enhances the synaptic reuptake of serotonin, without affecting norepinephrine and dopamine uptake, while it lacks affinity for neurotransmitter receptors. This mechanism for an antidepressant is apparently paradoxical, since the currently employed antidepressants enhance serotonin by inhibiting its breakdown or by inhibiting monoaminergic reuptake. Although tianeptine has been shown to reduce central 5HT availability and to indirecty modulate central adrenergic and dopaminergic systems and to indirectly inhibit cholinergic hyperactivity, its antidepressant action is believed to be more directly related to central neuronal remodeling and restoration of neuronal plasticity. In reliable animal models of depression tianeptine has been shown to prevent neurodegeneration and decreases in hippocampal volume in response to chronic stress. These effects on neuroplasticity are suspected to involve the normalization of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and modulatory effects on excitatory amino acids and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors. Together with a body of related studies, these data provide further support for the hypothesis that depression may involve dysregulation of pathways controlling cellular resilience and that treatment should be directed towards the reversal thereof. Importantly, tianeptine is not anxiogenic and has also been shown to be effective in treatment-resistant depression, which may lead the way to a major breakthrough in the treatment of depression. -

However, baseline antidepressant-related phenotype on either test. the contribution of the 5-HTT to their therapeutic efficacy is The behavioral effects of three antidepressants were tested in incompletely understood. We utilized a targeted gene 5-HTT mutant mice (C57BL/6J background) in the tail mutation approach to examine the role of the 5-HTT in the suspension test.

The 5-HTT mutation reuptake inhibitor, fluoxetine (30 mg/kg), were abolished in was bred onto two separate genetic backgrounds, C57BL/6J 5-HTT Ϫ/Ϫ mice, confirming that the 5-HTT gene is and 129S6.

Pehrson,1 Theepica Jeyarajah,1 Yan Li,1 Steven C. Leiser,1 Gennady Smagin,1 Christina K. Olsen,2 and Connie Sanchez1 1 Lundbeck Research USA, Paramus, New Jersey, USA 2 Lundbeck DK, Copenhagen-Valby, Denmark The hippocampus plays an important role in emotional and cognitive processing, and both of these domains are affected in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). Extensive preclinical research and the notion that modulation of serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmission plays a key role in the therapeutic efficacy of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) support the view that 5-HT is important for hippocampal function in normal and disease- like conditions. The hippocampus is densely innervated by serotonergic fibers, and the majority of 5-HT receptor subtypes are expressed there. Furthermore, hippocampal cells often co-express multiple 5-HT receptor subtypes that can have either complementary or opposing effects on cell function, adding to the complexity of 5-HT neurotransmission. Here we review the current knowledge of how 5-HT, through its various receptor subtypes, modulates hippocampal output and the activity of hippocampal pyramidal cells in rodents. -
