 Since depression may be related to the various symptoms in whiplash-associated disorder, we designed a prospective randomized controlled trial to determine whether a serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) would be effective for the treatment of whiplash-associated disorder. Treatment was based on the guidelines of the Quebec Task Force. The subjects were 47 patients with neck symptoms related to traffic accidents, exclusive of infants, pregnant women, and patients with fractures and visceral injuries. The subjects were divided into a group treated with an SNRI and a control group. The responses of the groups to 11 questionnaires were compared. SNRIs are considered preferable to trycyclic antidepressants(TCAs)and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) because they have fewer side effects. The mean treatment period was 3.68±2.04 weeks in the SNRI group and 5.00±4.45 weeks in the control group. SNRI tended to reduce the duration of whiplash-associated disorder. In conclusion, early treatment with an SNRI may reduce the symptomatic period in whiplash-associated disorder.
