We studied impact of ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate n the course of chronic heart failure during 3 years follow-up after myocardial infarction. Dynamics of objective and subjective parameters was assessed in 100 patients; 48 patients received conventional therapy (control group) and 52
Antidepressants are routinely used by General Practitioners (GP) as well as Psychiatrists to treat Depression. They are tolerated well. However, in certain patient populations, they are associated with SIADH (Syndrome of Inappropriate Anti-Diuretic Hormone Secretion) and Hyponatremia. Various
Antidepressant-like effects of ethanolic extract of Hericium erinaceus (HE) mycelium enriched in erinacine A on depressive mice challenged by repeated restraint stress (RS) were examined. HE at 100, 200 or 400 mg/kg body weight/day was orally given to mice for four weeks. After two weeks of HE
Noonan's syndrome is associated with cardiovascular, spinal and airway abnormalities. We experienced general anesthesia for a patient with Noonan's syndrome and long-term antidepressant therapy. A 42-year-old man was scheduled for radical operation for ventral hernia. He had been diagnosed as
Patients with chronic hepatic encephalopathy (HE) may present affective symptoms and antidepressant drug treatment in this condition is not uncommon. The present microdialysis study investigated treatment with the chronic antidepressant venlafaxine (VEN) in experimental HE with regard to tentative
A 17-year-old adolescent had a recurrent episode of somnolence and morbid hunger (Kleine-Levin syndrome) three years after a first attack, from which he had spontaneously recovered.

The effect of hypophysectomy (HE) on pain thresholds was studied in female noninbred rats. Hyperalgesia was observed after HE since the first till the sixth day of the observation period. Droperidol (1 mg/kg i.p.) and amitryptyline (5 mg/kg i.p.) produced hyperalgesia in sham-operated rats, which
The author points out the heterogeneity of depressions and antidepressants. He stresses the need of finding predictive indicators of antidepressant activity. Genetic, "demographic", biological, biochemical and pharmacokinetic factors can help to guide antidepressant's prescription. Urinary MHPG
