A small group of patients (n=34) using opioids for fibromyalgia were randomized to wear green, blue, or unfiltered glasses for 4 hours per day for 2 weeks. There was no impact on pain scores. Those wearing green glasses trended (nonsignificantly) toward lower anxiety scores. The green glasses group did have lower opioid use.

The evidence for NAD supplement effectiveness at present comes only from animal models and very small-scale human studies. And some studies link excessive consumption of NADH to anxiety and insomnia, and NAD precursors to Parkinson’s disease and diabetes.

In this study involving 452 patients with diagnoses of MDD, GAD, and PTSD, IM ketamine reduced depression by 38% and anxiety by 50%, with persistence over 7 months of maintenance therapy.

Test your clinical knowledge on JB, a right-handed, 35-year-old patient with a history of generalized anxiety disorder, who came into the clinic to be evaluated and managed for atypical movements that started in adolescence. JB frequently exhibits quick shoulder shrugs, abrupt head movements to the right, and throat clearing during the neurologic examination. Examination results for the cerebellum, motor, sensory, and reflexes are unremarkable.

SI, sadness, and anxiety symptoms could all be effectively treated with ketamine. The high rates of response and remission in population samples of TRD were comparable to those for interventional therapies. Racemic ketamine infusion as the main treatment for SI requires randomized controlled trials and comparative efficacy studies with other therapies.
