Effects of Pentazocine Versus Lorazepam on Manic Symptoms
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Pentazocine and Lorazepam for Bipolar Disorder and 4 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 19 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Pilot data indicates that pentazocine decreases manic symptoms in hospitalized individuals. To follow up these initial findings, we plan to conduct a larger, more rigorous, double-blind study. We will examine whether pentazocine, an agent with kappa-opiate activity, decreases manic symptoms.
