Trial was comprising of 60 patients, diagnosed with MDD, were allocated to fluoxetine group (n*-30, 20-60mg od) or duloxetine group (n*-30, 40-60mg od) for 16 weeks. The end points were remission and relapse assessed by Hamilton Rating scale for Depression-24 items (HAMD-24). In results the mean fall in HAMD-24 scores between groups was comparable till 4 weeks.
