Antidepressant doses under scrutiny for kidney patients
NCT ID NCT07531173
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study examined whether starting a higher dose of two common antidepressants (venlafaxine and duloxetine) increases the risk of emergency visits, hospital stays, or death within 30 days in older adults with chronic kidney disease. Researchers analyzed health records from over 8,600 people aged 66 and older with low kidney function. The goal was to gather safety information, not to test a new treatment.
