Triiodothyronine potentiation of fluoxetine in depressed patients

R T Joffe. Can J Psychiatry. 1992 Feb.

Abstract

Triiodothyronine (T3) has been shown to augment the therapeutic effect of tricyclic antidepressants as well as monoamine oxidase inhibitors. In this report, three cases of T3 potentiation of the antidepressant effect of fluoxetine are described. The results suggest that T3 augmentation may be effective with a wide range of antidepressants.
