New hope for controlling unwanted compulsive behaviors
NCT ID NCT05545891
Summary
This study aims to see if a medication called aripiprazole can help adults who struggle with compulsive hair pulling or skin picking. Over 6 weeks, 100 participants will take either the real medication or a placebo pill, and researchers will measure changes in their symptoms and quality of life. The goal is to find a new treatment option for these challenging conditions, which currently lack clearly effective medications.
