Background: Fluoxetine, a serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressant, raises extracellular serotonin levels and promotes angiogenesis and neurogenesis. Numerous animal models have shown its beneficial effects on recovery from peripheral nerve injury.
Purpose: The primary objective of this study was to analyze the influence of fluoxetine on the sensory-motor function recovery of the sciatic nerve in Wistar rats after axonotmesis.

Introduction: Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) such as fluoxetine adversely affect bone mineral density (BMD) and turnover, thereby increasing the risk of fractures. The objective of the present systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate studies on animal models that assessed whether fluoxetine can influence orthodontic tooth movement (OTM).
Material And Methods: Indexed databases (PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Scopus and ISI Web of Knowledge) and Google Scholar were searched without time and language barriers up to and including June 2024.

Introduction: Oxidative stress and proinflammatory signaling in the brain have been found to have a significant role in the pathogenesis of depression. Therefore, drugs that reduce oxidative stress and neuroinflammation may be helpful in depression as monotherapy or as an adjunct to conventional antidepressants. Zileuton, a 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor, has been identified as a putative antidepressant in an in vitro study.

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants such as fluoxetine are used in combination with the medical psychostimulant methylphenidate (Ritalin) in a variety of treatments in children and adults. Unintended co-exposure to these psychotropic medications also occurs in patients on SSRIs who abuse methylphenidate as a "cognitive enhancer" or recreational drug. Preclinical research shows that SSRIs such as fluoxetine when given in conjunction with methylphenidate potentiate addiction-related gene regulation by methylphenidate in the striatum, consistent with the known facilitatory role for serotonin in psychostimulant-induced neuronal and behavioral changes.
