Fluvoxamine in the treatment of menstrually related mood disorders

A T Veeninga et al. Psychopharmacology (Berl). 1990.

Abstract

Twenty women with premenstrual complaints were treated in a double-blind placebo controlled trial during two consecutive menstrual cycles with fluvoxamine, a selective serotonin uptake blocker. A beneficial effect was found on somatic and affective symptoms in both treatment groups, the effect of fluvoxamine being not different from placebo. The results of this study do not support a role for serotonin in menstrually related affective symptoms.
