Could laughing gas be a breakthrough for severe depression?

NCT ID NCT07262008

Summary

This study is testing whether nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, can help people whose depression hasn't improved with standard antidepressants. 120 adults with treatment-resistant depression will receive either laughing gas or a control treatment once a week for four weeks. Researchers will track changes in depression symptoms, quality of life, and side effects over several months to see if the treatment provides lasting relief.
