Suvorexant (Belsomra) for the Treatment of Bipolar Depression With Insomnia

Bipolar DisorderInsomnia

The investigators are doing this research study to find out if suvorexant (Belsomra) can help people with bipolar depression when added to their usual treatment. The investigators also want to find out if suvorexant (Belsomra) is safe to take without causing too many side effects in people with bipolar disorder. Suvorexant (Belsomra) is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat insomnia. It has not yet been studied in people with bipolar disorder who have problems sleeping. This research study will compare suvorexant (Belsomra) to placebo. The placebo looks exactly like suvorexant (Belsomra), but contains no suvorexant (Belsomra). During this study participants may get a placebo instead of suvorexant (Belsomra). Placebos are used in research studies to see if the results are due to the study drug or due to other reasons. This study has two parts, each lasting 6 weeks. During each part, participants may receive either Belsomra or placebo. Some participants will receive suvorexant for both parts, some will receive placebo for both parts, and others will receive suvorexant during one part and placebo during the other part. Placebos are used in research studies to see if the results are due to the study drug or due to other reasons. This study is open to people with bipolar disorder who have trouble sleeping. Bipolar disorder is a brain disorder associated with episodes of mood swings ranging from depressive lows to manic highs. About 80 subjects will take part in this research study. All subjects will be enrolled at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH).

Effects of Cannabis Abstinence on Symptomology and Cognition in Bipolar Disorder

Cannabis Use DisorderBipolar Disorder1 more

The objective of this study is to assess the changes in symptoms and cognition that occur after a 28-day abstinence period in patients with comorbid Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) and Bipolar (Type I or II) disorder. Stabilized bipolar patients (N=52) with CUD will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) A contingent reinforcement (CR) group (n=26); 2) a non-contingent reinforcement (NCR) group (n=26). The study will include a total of 8 visits to the CAMH Russell site (screening, training, baselines, week 1-4, follow-up). Participants should be between the ages of 18-60, meet criteria for CUD (moderate to severe), meet criteria for Bipolar Disorder, be on a stable dose of mood stabilizing medication(s), and be non-treatment seeking cannabis user. The visits will take up a total of approximately 22.5 hours with compensation for time provided for both groups. These visits will involve multiple clinical, substance use, and cognitive assessments. Abstinence will be maintained by weekly behavioural coaching sessions and contingency reinforcement for the CR group.

Effect of Regulated Add -on Sodium Chloride Intake on Stabilization of Serum Lithium Concentration...

Bipolar Affective Disorder

Bipolar affective disorder or manic -depressive psychosis (MDP) is a mood disorder affecting 2.4% of the global population . Lithium is considered as the "gold standard" for the treatment of bipolar disorder but the clinical use of lithium is often restricted due to its narrow therapeutic range and adverse effects. In a published case report, Bleiwiss H found that sodium chloride supplementation diminished the adverse effects caused by lithium The literature search also revealed that till date, there is no published clinical study evaluating the effect of dietary intake of sodium in preventing the fluctuations of serum lithium level and lithium toxicity Therefore, a randomized clinical trial has been designed to evaluate the effect of regulated add -on dietary sodium chloride on serum lithium levels in bipolar disorder.

Determination of Absorption and Elimination of Lamotrigine-XR

EpilepsySeizures2 more

People over 65 years of ag break down (metabolize) drugs differently than younger adults. It is not known why this happens or how elderly people absorb or break down these drug differently. These difference may show that elderly individuals need lower doses of medications to avoid possible toxicity. We are interested in studying how yor body absorbs and breaks down your lamotrigine medication. This research may indicate that doses of lamotrigine should be lowered as people get older.

Cannabinoids in Bipolar Affective Disorder

Bipolar Affective Disorder

Some people with bipolar disorder who use cannabis (marijuana) claim that it eases the symptoms of depression and mania. There are many chemicals (called cannabinoids) found in cannabis but two particular ones appear to have medicinal (therapeutic) effects. These two compounds are: delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). These cannabinoids appear to have mood, anxiety, and sedative effects as well as have antipsychotic and anticonvulsant properties. This study will try to find out if these cannabinoids can be of benefit as an add-on treatment in bipolar disorder and what effects it has on thinking power and memory.
