Acceleration and Relapse Prevention With Triiodothyronine (T3) as an Adjunct to Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)

The purpose of this study is: - To evaluate liothyronine (Cytomel) as an accelerating agent (i.e. faster rate to clinical remission) to electroconvulsive therapy. - To evaluate whether thyroid supplement acceleration can reduce the neurocognitive side effect of ECT treatment. - To evaluate whether thyroid status at the time of remission is associated with subsequent relapse rate. - To evaluate genetic polymorphisms in enzymes responsible for thyroid metabolism and the serotonin transporter promoter gene in depression (5-HTTLRP).
