Overview

Paroxetine + sertraline refers to a clinical treatment regimen and trial protocol (NCT01441076) evaluated by Oizumi Hospital for the management of major depressive disorder (MDD). The protocol investigates the efficacy of switching between these two selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in patients who fail to achieve an early clinical response (defined as a 20% reduction in MADRS scores) within the first two weeks of treatment. Both agents primarily function by inhibiting the serotonin transporter (SERT), thereby increasing synaptic serotonin levels. Paroxetine is also known for its mild muscarinic antagonism, while sertraline exhibits weak dopamine reuptake inhibition. This switching strategy aims to optimize therapeutic outcomes in non-responsive patients by leveraging potential differences in the pharmacodynamic profiles of these SSRIs.
