Official title
Systematic Assessment of Response to Open-label Treatment With Varenicline in Depressed Outpatient Smokers
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will assess whether varenicline (chantix) has antidepressant properties when used in addition to other psychiatric medication. It will also assess whether varenicline improves the inability to feel pleasure (i.e. anhedonia), and if it is well-tolerated when used with psychiatric medications. Enrolled patients will be assessed for improved mood, improved anhedonia, overall sense of health, side effects as well as tobacco use for 6-8 weeks. Medication will be provided free of charge.
