NCT ID NCT05616260
Summary
This study tested whether a low-cost, once-daily pill called acetazolamide could help young adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Many people with OSA struggle to use the standard mask treatment. For two weeks, 54 participants took either the drug or a placebo to see if it reduced breathing pauses during sleep and lowered blood pressure, aiming to offer a new treatment option.
