[Paroxetine augmentation with risperidone in therapy-resistant depression].
In a 71 years-old patient, a severe therapy-resistant depressive episode without psychotic symptoms was successfully treated by a combination of paroxetine and risperidone. Previously, several different antidepressants were not effective in ameliorating the depressive symptoms which occurred repeatedly over a period of more than ten years.
