New hope for nerve pain: extending Ketamine's benefits
NCT ID NCT01602185
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether two common drugs, memantine and dextromethorphan, can help maintain or improve pain relief after a ketamine treatment in people with long-term nerve pain. Seven adults with chronic neuropathic pain who had already responded to ketamine took part. The goal was to find a practical way to keep pain under control after ketamine's effects wear off.
