FDA Approves New Drug

[triceps]

The FDA just approved a nasal spray that has had great, more importantly, immediate results for depression. It's for the 33% of seriously depressed folks who don't respond to the standard array of anti-depressants and has to be administered every two weeks at a doctors' office. Truly a major breakthrough. Hopefully they're getting close on something similar for anxiety.

I saw that too. If anyone tries it let me know. I have a fear of trying new things but if I can get past that I am usually okay about the drug.

I would also be interested in hearing if anyone has tried it. I have major medication anxiety. Had a really awful reaction to zoloft.

Fascinating! Where did you hear about it, @triceps ? And is it not just a stimulant?

 

[guitarman65]

I predict this will be a very popular treatment, hopefully one that will also be available for most insurances!

Just google nasal antidepressant and you can find out everything about this medication.
