RESUMEN
Antecedentes: Las tasas de respuesta a diferentes clases de antidepresivos ayudan a elaborar guías para la prescripción
racional en farmacoterapia. Sin embargo, existen pocos estudios comparativos con antidepresivos inhibidores selectivos de
la recaptación de serotonina o noradrenalina en la misma muestra de pacientes con depresión mayor.
Método: Pacientes
ambulatorios con un primer episodio depresivo mayor (DSM-III-R) que completaron 6 semanas de tratamiento en dos estudios
a doble ciego aleatorizados con fluoxetina y desipramina que recibieron por 6 semanas de manera cruzada el otro fármaco
antidepresivo. Como respuesta se consideró si el puntaje final de la escala Hamilton de depresión disminuyó un 50% o más
desde la determinación basal.
Resultados: No encontramos diferencias por tratamiento o secuencia. Diez de los 18 pacientes
(55.5%) respondieron a fluoxetina y desipramina, tres(16.6%) fueron resistentes para fluoxetina y tres (16.6%) para
Desipramina, y dos (11.1%) para ambos fármacos.
Discusión: Nuestro estudio sugiere que, en pacientes ambulatorios con
un primer episodio depresivo, la fluoxetina y la desipramina son igualmente eficaces. En los pacientes que no respondieron
a uno de los fármacos estudiados, el otro tratamiento fue eficaz; esta maniobra de tratamiento debe ser considerada en estos
pacientes.
