The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of pharmacological treatments for mood and addiction symptoms in people with mood disorders and addiction comorbidity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A systematic search of placebo-controlled randomized controlled trials investigating the effects of pharmacological treatments in people with bipolar disorder (BD) or major depressive disorder (MDD), and comorbid addictions was performed. Treatment-related effects on mood and addiction measures were assessed in a meta-analysis, which also estimated risks of participant dropout and adverse effects.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 32 studies met systematic review inclusion criteria. Pharmacological therapy was more effective than placebo for improving manic symptoms (standardized mean difference [SMD] = \u22120.15; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], \u22120.29 to \u22120.02; P = 0.03) but not BD depressive symptoms (SMD = \u22120.09; 95% CI, \u22120.22 to 0.03; P = 0.15). Quetiapine significantly improved manic symptoms (SMD = \u22120.23; 95% CI, \u22120.39 to \u22120.06; P = 0.008) but not BD depressive symptoms (SMD = \u22120.07; 95% CI, \u22120.23 to 0.10; P = 0.42). Pharmacological therapy was more effective than placebo for improving depressive symptoms in MDD (SMD = \u22120.16; 95% CI, \u22120.30 to \u22120.03; P = 0.02). Imipramine improved MDD depressive symptoms (SMD = \u22120.58; 95% CI, \u22121.03 to \u22120.13; P = 0.01) but Selective serotonin reuptake Inhibitors (SSRI)-based treatments had no effect (SMD = \u22120.06; 95% CI, \u22120.30 to 0.17; P = 0.60). Pharmacological treatment improved the odds of alcohol abstinence in MDD but had no effects on opiate abstinence.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Pharmacological treatments were significantly better than placebo in improving manic symptoms, MDD depressive symptoms, and alcohol abstinence but were not better for bipolar depression symptoms. Importantly, quetiapine was not more effective than placebo in improving bipolar depression symptoms nor were SSRI\u2019s for the treatment of MDD depression.
