Abstract:Objective To systematically evaluate the effect and safety of Escitalopram and Paroxetine in the treatment of post-stroke depression (PSD). Methods The randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Escitalopram and Paroxetine for treating PSD were retrieved in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Wanfang database, CBM, CNKI, Google Scholar, Baidu Scholar published from the establishment of the database to November 2019 by computer. After extracting the data and evaluating the quality, the RevMan 5.3 software was used to conduct Meta-analysis on the data. Results Finally 9 RCTs were included, involving 765 patients. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the Hamilton depression rating scale(HAMD) score in the experimental group decreased more than that in the control group after 1 week of treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (SMD=-0.83, 95%CI[-1.06, -0.60], Z=7.05, P<0.000 01). After 2, 4, 6 or 8 weeks of treatment, there were no significant differences in HAMD scores between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the effective rate between the two groups after 6 or 8 weeks of treatment (RR=1.03, 95%CI[0.98, 1.09], Z=1.12, P=0.26). The incidence rates of dry mouth, nausea, headache, and constipation in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Escitalopram has the same effect as Paroxetine in the treatment of PSD, but Escitalopram has a faster onset.
