What the Health Canada label says it is for

1 Indications TRINTELLIX (vortioxetine hydrobromide) is indicated for: • the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults. The efficacy of TRINTELLIX in providing symptomatic relief of MDD was demonstrated in double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials of up to 8 weeks duration (see 14.1 Clinical Trials by Indication, Study Results). The efficacy of TRINTELLIX in maintaining an antidepressant response for up to 24 weeks was demonstrated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in patients with MDD who initially responded to 12-weeks of acute, open label treatment with TRINTELLIX (see 14.1 Clinical Trials by Indication, Study Results). Physicians who elect to use TRINTELLIX for extended periods should periodically re-evaluate the usefulness of the drug for individual patients. 1.1 Pediatrics Pediatrics (<18 years of age): Based on the data submitted and reviewed by Health Canada, the safety and efficacy of TRINTELLIX in pediatric patients has not been established; therefore, Health Canada has not authorized an indication for pediatric use (see 7 Warnings and Precautions, Potential Association With Behavioural And Emotional Changes, Including Sel… https://pdf.hres.ca/dpd_pm/00085298.PDF PM date: 2026-07-10 Source product: TRINTELLIX; DIN 02432919; fetched 2026-09-10 Product monograph posted by Health Canada; excerpt for lookup only.
