Yeah, unfortunate I guess that this will likely be another dead end. Seems like a lot of dead ends.
The patch doesn't provide a fast acting effect. (I am not looking for a fast acting effect) but, thats probably what makes the drug abusable in tablet form(?).
I think its pretty stupid. There are a lot of (questionable) drugs that have efficacy in depressive disorder, that most people could use without abuse. Yet some group of nutbars with little/no self control have to ruin it for other would can use such substances responsably.
Most antidepressant drugs produce some sort of downstream adaptation in the cholinergic axis. Most/all antidepressants have some effect on dampening cholinergic activity.
Too bad I guess.
Doesn't datura contain scopolamine ?
