> I know that fluvoxamine is supposedly more effective than other SSRI's for psychotic depression. Are the MAOI's a good option for psychotic depression?

That's a great question that I don't know the answer to. Traditionally, the TCAs have been used for psychotic depression. Amoxapine, because of its antipsychotic properties, had been the preferred choice of TCA for awhile. I have seen Wellbutrin work in combination with Seroquel.
