Abstract

A very powerful serotonine potentiation was found of oxime ethers of the formula ##STR1## where R is methoxy, ethoxy, cyano, cyanomethyl, chlorine, methoxyethoxy or methoxymethyl and their salts which is associated with a much less strong noradrenaline potentiation. The compounds have no anti-depressive activity component based on monoamino oxidase inhibition and are substantially free from side effects.
