- Abstract
Galactorrhea in nonpregnant woman of child-bearing age is related to various pathologies including the use of psychotropic. Although common with antipsychotics, galactorrhea with antidepressants was infrequent. Previously reported cases of galactorrhea were mostly with combined antidepressants and cases of galactorrhea with paroxetine and fluvoxamine were with normal serum prolactin level. We reported three cases of galactorrhea, one with single use of paroxetine and other two with fluvoxamine with elevated serum prolactin level in all three cases.
