Active Comparator: FLUOXETINE 4 weeks of treatment before video-EEG monitoring | Drug: FLUOXETINE Fluoxetine 20 mg per day during 4 weeks prior to video-EEG, then continued during video-EEG.
At the end of video-EEG, and according to patient's decision, treatment was either progressively withdrawn (1 week at 10 mg per day and then 1 week at 5 mg per day), or replaced by fluoxetine 20 mg open-label. |
Placebo Comparator: PLACEBO 1 month of treatment before EEG video. | Drug: PLACEBO Placebo 20 mg per day during 4 weeks prior to video-EEG, then continued during video-EEG.
At the end of video-EEG, and according to patient's decision, treatment was either progressively withdrawn (1 week at 10 mg per day and then 1 week at 5 mg per day), or replaced by fluoxetine 20 mg open-label. |
