摘要:
A 53-year-old man with multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS) received the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) citalopram for treatment of depression. The treatment was successful and, in parallel to the remission of the depressive symptoms, all MCS symptoms vanished. This suggests that a subgroup of MCS patients may have an atypical depression, that they should be psychiatrically evaluated, and that antidepressive pharmacological treatment may be considered in cases of MCS.
