Actually there were some tests devised that accurately predicted who would respond to treatment with either paroxetine or mirtazapine.

It was a genetic test that looked at the coding varient you had for the 5-ht2a receptor.
Based on the test, they predicted quite well who would respond to either treatment.

The treatment was randomized, and if one drug didn't work then the other was tried.


I will look for the study. It was done by univesity students and not drug companies.
