> Scott - I talked to one of the Eli Lilly reps about duloxetine. They expect it to be released in Canada in 2003. Besides depression they are also trying to get approved for some bladder disorder (stress incontinence? - I can't remember).
Yes, I've heard that, like many other antidepressants, duloxetine causes urinary retention, so instead of seeing this as a potentially dangerous adverse reaction (it's not healthy to retain your urine), Lilly is trying to capitalize on it and exploit it for marketing purposes.

I agree about the SSDD. Just what the world needs -- yet another "me too" lipogenic, impotence-ogenic, wimpogenic SSRI.
