Help to Test an Experimental Drug Treatment for PTSD
Do you have nightmares and intrusive memories of a traumatic event such as an accident or an attack?
If so, you may suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and be eligible for a study of an investigational drug.
We are investigating the hypothesis that the drug propranolol may be an effective treatment for PTSD. Propranolol has been approved by the FDA for treatment of high blood pressure, but has not been approved for treatment of PTSD
The study will take place at the NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center
PARTICIPATION INVOLVES:
- Four-hour screening visit
- 14 weeks of drug treatment
- 6 outpatient visits during drug treatment
- Daily symptom diaries
There is no monetary compensation for participation
Subjects may receive active drug or placebo
