Neck injection offers new hope for Tough-to-Treat PTSD

NCT ID NCT07382596

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a simple injection of dextrose (sugar water) into the neck can reduce symptoms like anxiety, brain fog, and depression in people with PTSD who haven't improved after trying multiple medications and therapies. About 50 adults will receive either the dextrose injection or a placebo (salt water) to see which works better. The goal is to find a new, low-risk option for those still struggling with PTSD.
