- refurb 8y agoThey ran a bunch of clinical trials on it.
- dawhizkid 8y agoMaybe the gov't should fund trials for the use of generic ketamine to treat depression, and then come to the conclusion that generic ketamine can be used to treat depression (as they've concluded with esketamine) and then any medical profession could prescribe ketamine (in a controlled setting) at 1/300th the price.
- taurath 8y agoThe drug was already discovered and in use on humans. Universities everywhere could’ve run clinical trials on it. There’s not much here that’s novel or new, but they get to charge a good used car a month because they ran some trials? Sorry.
- jokowueu 8y agoNo studies on long term use for people with depression . Trials are expensive . esketamine by j&j was done for people that don't have money for clinic which are out of pocket but money enough for insurance
