Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral olanzapine is safer (fewer adverse events) and more effective (shorter time to sedation) than conventional haloperidol or diazepam when used in the management of acute agitation in the emergency.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the noninferiority of inhaled loxapine compared to intramuscular haloperidol/lorazepam on agitation reduction at 120 minutes.
A ten-week study to assess MP-101 in Dementia-Related Psychosis and/or Agitation and Aggression
To evaluate the efficacy of pimavanserin compared with placebo in treatment of agitation and aggression after 12 weeks of treatment
Treatment Phase I and II Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of FCM (750 mg dose x 2) for treatment of Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) in patients with iron-deficiency anemia (IDA). Long-Term Extension Phase III Primary Objective: To evaluate the duration of effect of prior FCM treatment and to determine the effectiveness of further iron repletion with FCM when RLS symptoms worsen or reoccur.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study comparing the efficacy and safety of ITI-007 versus placebo administered orally once daily in the treatment of agitation in patients with dementia, including Alzheimer's disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether intramuscular olanzapine is safer (fewer adverse events) and more effective (shorter time to sedation) than conventional haloperidol or midazolam when used in the management of acute agitation in the emergency department.
Delirium is the most often encountered psychiatric diagnosis in the general hospital, with incidence up to 85% in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting and with significant consequences on patients' morbidity and mortality. Currently, although not FDA approved, antipsychotics are often considered the first-line pharmacological treatment. However, there can be limitations to their use, including side effects or lack of efficacy. Valproic acid (VPA) is one of the alternatives at times used in such patients which from limited case series data appears to be helpful and tolerated. VPA can provide relief from agitation that poses a threat to the safety and recovery of the patient. Moreover, mechanistically it addresses the neurochemical and cellular abnormalities inherent in delirium (it has NMDA-antagonist, anti-dopaminergic, GABAergic,anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and histone deacetylase inhibitor properties, among others). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of the VPA in the first known to us randomized controlled trial.
To evaluate the efficacy (based on mean change in Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory [CMAI] total score from baseline as the primary efficacy variable), dose-response, and safety of aripiprazole at 2, 3, and 6 mg/day in comparison with placebo in patients with agitation associated with Alzheimer's type dementia
The study will compare the safety, effectiveness and tolerability of gabapentin (Neurontin) versus gabapentin enacarbil (Horizant) as treatment restless leg syndrome.
