ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo observe the efficacy and side effects of paroxetine and amitriptyline in the treatment of post-stroke depression (PSD).Methods82 PSD patients were randomly divided into the paroxetine group (n=42) and amitriptyline group (n=40). Before the treatment and at the ends of 2nd, 4th and 8th week after the treatment, all patients in two groups were assessed with Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and TESS.ResultsAfter treatment, HAMD scores of patients of two groups were decreased significantly (P<0.01), but no difference was found between two groups.
