Summary

Fluoxetine is commonly used to treat adolescent depression, but the neural mechanisms underlying antidepressant drugs in the young brain are still poorly understood. This study proposes to investigate the effects of a single dose of fluoxetine on emotional neural processing in a sample of depressed adolescents, using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI).
