About
Sexual dysfunction is a common side effect of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). The hypotheses of this study are that:1. subjects with major depression or dysthymia who are being treated with an SSRI and experiencing treatment-related sexual dysfunction will experience less sexual dysfunction if they are switched to duloxetine, and 2. they will experience either improved antidepressant response or no loss of antidepressant response.
Full description

Study subjects are assigned to receive open label duloxetine for 12 weeks at either 60mg per day or 120mg per day after discontinuing their current antidepressant
