Oxytocin treatment study for binge eating disorder adults
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This Phase 2 trial tests whether oxytocin (a hormone-like medication) can reduce binge-eating symptoms in adults with binge-eating disorder (including related conditions like bulimia or certain feeding/eating disorders). You may be eligible if your symptoms match the trial’s specific diagnosis rules and you can safely take the study medication.
