MAJOR DEPRESSIVE EPISODE
The recommended dose is 20 mg daily. In general, improvement in
patients starts after one week but may only become evident from the
second
week of therapy.
As with all antidepressant medicinal products, dosage should be
reviewed and adjusted if necessary within 3 to 4 weeks of initiation
of therapy
and thereafter as judged clinically appropriate. In some patients,
with insufficient response to 20 mg, the dose may be increased
gradually up to
a maximum of 50 mg a day in 10 mg steps according to the patient’s
response.
Patients with depression should be treated for a sufficient period of
at least 6 months to ensure that they are free from symptoms.
OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DISORDER
The recommended dose is 40 mg daily. Patients should start on 20
mg/day and the dose may be increased gradually in 10 mg increments to
the
recommended dose. If after some weeks on the recommended dose
insufficient response is seen some patients may benefit from having
their
dose increased gradually up to a maximum of 60 mg/day.
Patients with OCD should be treated for a sufficient period to ensure
that they are free from symptoms. This period may be several months or
even longer (see “Pharmacodynamic properties�
