Abstract:
In a double blind controlled study, rTMS results in a similar antidepressant effect to sham in combination with paroxetine. Both groups had the same delay in scale's scores improvement. rTMS seems not to be efficient as an add-on treatment to pharmacological medication in non-resistant major depression.
