Efficacy Mechanism of N-acetylcysteine in Patients With Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Clinical Trial

Official title:
Elucidation of Efficacy Mechanism of N-acetylcysteine in Patients With Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: An 8-week Multimodal Neuroimaging and Neurocognitive Study

Clinical Trial Summary

It has been suggested that N-acetylcysteine exerts neuroprotective effects by regulating neurotransmitters and cell signaling pathways. We hypothesize that oral N-acetylcysteine augmentation will help reduce symptoms in patients with posttraumatic stress disorder as well as improve cognitive functions. We also expect that the N-acetylcysteine augmentation will induce change in structural, functional, and neurochemical aspects of the brain.

In this study, we plan to conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled augmentation study with N-acetylcysteine in addition to escitalopram. We will assess the efficacy and safety of the N-acetylcysteine augmentation.
