Title: The Efficacy of Citalopram Treatment in Acute Stroke
Brief Summary: We wish to conduct a prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled multi center study of the combined neuroprotective and antithrombotic effects of SSRI treatment after stroke.

Hypotheses:

SSRI treatment commenced in the acute phase of stroke (day 0-7) protects against new thromboembolic events and leads to better rehabilitation. 600 stroke patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio.

The treatment and follow up period is 6 months. During these 6 months there will be 2 clinical follow up visits, one telephone control and one visit to evaluate compliance regarding medication.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* unilateral supratentorial stroke
* MMSE \> 22
* \> 6 months stroke duration
* \< 0.9 m/s gait speed overground

Exclusion Criteria:

* lower extremity contracture
* osteoporosis
* Cardiovascular/metabolic/respiratory instability
* previous central/peripheral nerve injury
* concurrent medications interacting with SSRIs
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* First ever ischemic stroke
* Age 18 years or above

Exclusion Criteria:

* Hemorrhagic stroke
* Dementia or other neurodegenerative disease
* Antidepressant medical treatment within 6 months of admission

* Renal failure (eGFR below 30 ml/min per 1.73m2)
* Hyponatremia (S-potassium below 130 mmol/l)
* Actively bleeding ulcer
* Fatal stroke or other severe co-morbidity that markedly decreases expected life span
* Prolonged corrected QT-interval (QTc above 480 ms)
* Ongoing treatment with drugs known to prolong the QTc interval
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Men and women aged from 18 to 85
* No motor relapse from a previous stroke
* Inclusion from day 5 to day 10 after stroke
* Ischemic stroke with unilateral motor deficit
* Motor NIHSS ≥ 5 on the affected side of the body

* Depression requiring pharmacological treatment
* Previous stroke with motor relapse
* Fugl Meyer Motor Scale \> 55
* Modified Rankin Scale = 0 or 6
* Patients needing carotid surgery within 3 months
* Aphasia preventing correct evaluation of motor and depression scales.
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients who had an acute intracerebral hemorrhage within the past 10 days causing hemiparesis or hemiplegia

* Comprehension deficit or severe aphasia
* Previous diagnosis of depression or one of the following:

  * Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale score ≥11 points
  * Taking antidepressant drugs two weeks before inclusion
