Clovoxamine and doxepin in major depressive disorder: a double-blind controlled trial. 1986

G J Lodge, and H L Freeman

Clovoxamine, an inhibitor of neuronal uptake of both serotin and noradrenaline, was compared with doxepin in depressed patients over four weeks. Antidepressant efficacy was comparable for both drugs, but clovoxamine might have a special degree of efficacy for patients with more severe depressive illnesses.
