D-AP5 Drug for Chronic Tinnitus

[JasonP]

According to this paper, D-AP5 reduced chronic tinnitus in rats:

I know this drug is able to be ordered. Is it possible for a human to try it and a doctor to infuse it into humans and would it be safe?

This was published in 2013, so I'm going to assume it only worked on the rats?

I have no idea. I originally put this in the treatment section but someone moved it to research news.

It doesn't work like that. Small animals are usually given high doses of drugs to see if anything interesting happens. They disregard side effects which may be severe. These are preclinical trials.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phases_of_clinical_research

The entire process of a drug from lab to this point may take approximately 12 to 18 years (but not always), often costing over $1 billion.

That is safe.

It says something about being also good for some other ilnesses

So you think that this drug would energize macrophages to target and eliminate tinnitus...cells?

Dunno just seems like a new way in medicine so you never know.
