Memantine for recovery after mild or moderate brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether memantine, a medicine usually used for memory problems, can help people recover from mild to moderate traumatic brain injury. You would receive memantine along with your standard care, starting within 24 hours of the injury.
