How can you use “fluoxetine” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
While grooming remained unaffected, flank marking was inhibited by treatment with fluoxetine and clomipramine but not desipramine.
The present data show that AVP-induced flank marking is selectively inhibited by chronic treatment with serotonin re-uptake inhibitors such as fluoxetine or clomipramine, instead of noradrenergic re-uptake inhibitors such as desipramine.
In canine acral lick dermatitis, the excessive licking of the paws and flanks was significantly reduced by fluoxetine and clomipramine two and three weeks into treatment, respectively [ 25 ] . However, the scale of the reduction was more pronounced over a five-week period of treatment [ 25 ] . Perhaps flank gland grooming would have been significantly altered in these studies if drug treatment had been extended for several more weeks.
As noted earlier, fluoxetine is a selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor while clomipramine is a non-selective re-uptake inhibitor of serotonin, and to some extent norepinephrine.
While bouts of grooming are coincident with flank marking, the selective inhibition of flank marking and not grooming by clomipramine and fluoxetine suggest the two behaviors employ different neuronal networks and neurochemical signals for their control.
