摘要
Fluvoxamine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) which may be used for the management of anxiety disorders in children and adolescents. Absorption of fluvoxamine was similar in adolescents to that in adults, which suggests that the maximum dosage of the drug for patients aged between 12 and 17 years can be as high as 300 mg/day. However, steady-state plasma fluvoxamine concentrations were 2 to 3 times higher in children (aged between 6 and 11 years) than in adolescents; thus, the maximum fluvoxamine dosage recommended for children is 200 mg/day.
