Antidepressant-like effects of the Punica granatum and citalopram combination are associated with structural changes in dendritic spines of granule cells in the dentate gyrus of rats.

Combining a phytoestrogens-enriched extract with citalopram (CIT) at sub-optimal doses resulted in an increased antidepressant-like effect and neuroplasticity in rats. This suggests a potential alternative therapy for reducing depressive symptoms in menopause.
