Summary

This study tests whether a sublingual tablet (TNX-102 SL) can reduce acute stress symptoms and prevent long-term PTSD in adults who come to the emergency room after a car crash. 180 participants will receive either the drug or a placebo for two weeks, starting in the ER. Researchers will track stress levels, thinking abilities, and side effects over time.
