Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether prazosin will:

- reduce the incidence of nightmares and sleep disturbance

- increase functioning and sense of well being in combat-trauma exposed Operation Iraqi Freedom/Operation Enduring Freedom (OIF/OEF) Veterans.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a 15-week randomized parallel design, double-blind, placebo-controlled augmentation trial of prazosin to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of prazosin augmentation in the treatment of PTSD trauma-related nightmares, sleep disturbance, global function and sense of well-being, and other clinical features and comorbidities of PTSD. Participants will be 210 OIF/OEF soldiers and veterans who have suffered war zone trauma.
