研究概览
简要总结
The goal of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of naltrexone in kleptomania.
详细描述
The proposed study will consist of 8 weeks of treatment with either naltrexone or placebo in 20 subjects with kleptomania. The hypothesis to be tested is that naltrexone will be effective in reducing the urges to steal in patients with kleptomania. The proposed study will provide needed data on the treatment of a disabling disorder that currently lacks a clearly effective treatment.
