  • Title: Fluoxetine as a treatment for bulimia nervosa.
    Author: Freeman CP, Hampson M.
    Journal: Int J Obes; 1987; 11 Suppl 3():171-7. PubMed ID: 3501993.
    Abstract:
    The results of a small study using fluoxetine in the treatment of bulimia nervosa are presented. Ten subjects were treated on an open basis with fluoxetine 60-80 mg daily. Seven subjects stopped their bulimic behaviour completely, two improved and one was unchanged. The results indicate that fluoxetine may have a role in the treatment of bulimia and that further investigation is warranted. A brief review of other drug studies on bulimia nervosa is presented.
