Riluzole Augmentation Pilot in Depression (RAPID) Trial
RandomizedParallel-groupTriple-blindTreatment
Summary
The investigators are doing a research study to find out if riluzole, when taken along with a standard antidepressant (sertraline) can help people with major depression. This research study will compare riluzole + sertraline to placebo + sertraline. The investigators hypothesize that adding riluzole will lead to a better antidepressant response, in less time, then sertraline alone.
