It's my understanding that LUVOX (fluvoxamine) is only approved for use
for OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), not your "run of the mill"
depression.  I note that Paxil is in the same class (5HT reuptake
inhibitor) and THAT is used for both OCD and Depression--so maybe LUVOX
will eventually be okayed for it too.  Haven't heard of any MD's "bending
the rules" and using this for depression yet.
