Depression Drugs 'Little Better Than Placebos': Study

Agence France-Presse English Wire - Feb. 26, 2008

by Katherine Haddon

and Seroxat are barely more effective than placebos in treating most

incorporating data not previously released by drug companies which 
researchers obtained under US freedom of information laws.
