12 patients (34.28%) dropped out side effects. These data differ slightly with the findings of an earlier open-label 52-week study (Wohlreich et al., 2004), in which the drop out rate for the appear-ance of side effects was 27%. Similar to the study con-ducted by Wise et al. (2007), in our work, one subject discontinued duloxetine for ineffectiveness. Discontin-uation for the appearance of side effects occurs early (within 1 month in 42.86% of cases). This finding agrees with what is already known in the literature (Wohlreich et al., 2007). In our sample, the side effects have occurred in a high percentage of the sample (85.71% out of patients that discontinued therapy). The most common side effects were nausea (20%), dry mouth (14.29%) and anxiety (11.43%). These data reflect what is reported in other works in the literature (Raskin et al., 2007; Wohlreich et al., 2007; Volonteri et al., 2010). DLX has been shown to be a drug with a good safety profile. The study has some limitations that need to be acknowledged. In particular, the small sample and the high dropout rate might have limited the reliability of some results. In addition, the frequent administration of duloxetine within different medical polytherapy regimens might represent a confounding factor in the evaluation of side effects, so that studies focused on the tolerability of duloxetine within stan-dardized treatments are required. Another limit is the lack of a placebo control for the comparison of the re-sults. Finally, given that this was a naturalistic, open-label study and not a randomized controlled trial, cau-tion should be taken when looking at the results.
