Official title
A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial of 5-hydroxytryptophan and Creatine for SSRI or SNRI Augmentation in Treatment Resistant Depression Associated With Hypobaric Hypoxia in Females
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The investigators propose to determine if 8 weeks of dietary augmentation with oral 5g creatine monohydrate daily and 100 mg of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) twice daily reduces hypoxia-related depressive symptoms measured by the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) in women with SSRI- or SNRI-resistant depression, combined with the examination of changes in functional connectivity based on resting-state fMRI and changes in brain metabolism inferred from phosphorus-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
