Brief Summary:
Emotionally labile, depressed participants with multiple sclerosis treated with escitalopram will have a greater reduction in emotional lability scores and in their psychological distress scores than those who are randomized to receive placebo.
Detailed Description:
Patients with multiple sclerosis who are experiencing mood lability and symptoms of depression will be randomized to receive either escitalopram 10mg/day or placebo tablets for a period of 6 weeks. It is hypothesized that patients receiving medication will experience a greater normalization of their emotional instability and a greater reduction in their depressive symptoms at the end of the six-week trial than those who are not receiving medication.
