dextroamphetamine has been researched along with Depressive Disorder, Major in 14 studies

Dextroamphetamine: The d-form of AMPHETAMINE. It is a central nervous system stimulant and a sympathomimetic. It has also been used in the treatment of narcolepsy and of attention deficit disorders and hyperactivity in children. Dextroamphetamine has multiple mechanisms of action including blocking uptake of adrenergics and dopamine, stimulating release of monamines, and inhibiting monoamine oxidase. It is also a drug of abuse and a psychotomimetic.
(S)-amphetamine : A 1-phenylpropan-2-amine that has S configuration.

Trial Outcomes

Change From Augmentation Baseline for Non-Remitters in Montgomery-Ǻsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score at Week 6 - Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF)

MADRS is a validated, 10-item rating scale with each item being scored on a scale from 0-6 with a total score ranging from 0-60. Lower scores indicate a decreased severity of depression. (NCT00905424)
Timeframe: Augmentation Baseline, 6 weeks

Change From Augmentation Baseline for Non-Remitters in the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAM-D) Total Score at Week 6 - LOCF

The HAM-D is a validated rating scale which consists of 17 items. Nine of the items are scored on a scale of 0-4 and 8 items are scored on a scale of 0-2 for a total scoring range of 0-52. A score of 0-7 is generally accepted to be within the normal range (or in clinical remission), while a score of 20 or higher indicates increased severity of depression. In general, the lower the total score the less severe the depression. (NCT00905424)
Timeframe: Augmentation Baseline, 6 weeks
