Abstract

We prolonged from 24 to 48 months a follow-up study of unipolar subjects with high recurrence rate treated with fluvoxamine (N=25) and sertraline (N=22). During the two-year additional period a significant risk of recurrences was observed during the third year of follow-up, without differences in the two long-term therapy groups. During the fourth year no patients showed new episodes of illness. Copyright (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.
