[Action of clovoxamine on the sleep of depressed patients. "Polygraphic recordings"]. 1985

R Minot, and M A Crocq, and B Roussel, and M Marie-Cardine

This study reports the action of clovoxamine, a non-tricyclic non IMAO antidepressant, on the sleep parameters of five patients suffering from primary depressive illness. Before treatment all subjects presented an EEG syndrome of primary depressive sleep disorder (decreased paradoxical sleep latency). Sleep recordings were made after 1 month and 3 months of monotherapy with clovoxamine. PS latency increased to normal values, sleep efficiency improved and wake time decreased, and, more remarkably, paradoxical sleep was not suppressed by clovoxamine.

D000928 Antidepressive Agents Mood-stimulating drugs used primarily in the treatment of affective disorders and related conditions. Several MONOAMINE OXIDASE INHIBITORS are useful as antidepressants apparently as a long-term consequence of their modulation of catecholamine levels. The tricyclic compounds useful as antidepressive agents (ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENTS, TRICYCLIC) also appear to act through brain catecholamine systems. A third group (ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENTS, SECOND-GENERATION) is a diverse group of drugs including some that act specifically on serotonergic systems.
