title: Treatment of postpsychotic depression with sertraline in patients with schizophrenia--own experience.
abstract: Some authors treated two groups of patients with postpsychotic depression in a group of patients with schizophrenia. Sertraline proved better than imipramine in view of earlier onset of action and lower incidence, intensity and duration of adverse effects and lower risk of schizophrenic symptom recurrence.
