Patients were randomized to 16-week treatments with either DIT plus antidepressant medication (DIT + ADM; The group × time interaction was significant for the primary outcome HAMD ( Acute treatment with DIT or GST in combination with ADM was similarly efficacious in reducing depressive symptoms and yielded a better outcome than ADM alone. DIT may provide MDD patients with long-term benefits in symptom improvement but results must be viewed with caution.
