From a study out of US and
Mexican university psychiatric
departments comes a novel
treatment for social anxiety in the
form of a nasal spray.
The authors conducted a phase II,
multicenter, randomized, doubleblind,
placebo-controlled study
using a single-dose of PH94B.
Ninety-one women aged from 19
to 60 years of age with generalised
social anxiety disorder were
involved, with the study recording
a significantly greater decrease in
mean Subjective Units of Distress
scores.
The authors concluded that
PH94B may be an effective, and
well-tolerated acute treatment for
performance and social anxiety in
women with social anxiety disorder.
