This study claims a really high response rate. Do we know why it was retracted?
My naloxone trial
I've got six Nyxoid nasal sprays, each containing 1.8 mg naloxone. I used the first of them today, eight minutes ago. To get a smaller dose, I blew my nose right after taking the first dose. Got five more doses left for later.
Why try? In the British Journal of Psychiatry they write.
Nuller et al(2001) found a significant transient beneficial effect of naloxone infusion on symptoms of depersonalisation in 10 of 14 patients studied. This intriguing result suggests a possible role of the endogenous opioid system in the pathogenesis of depersonalisation, and the possibility that anti-opioid drugs may have therapeutic value. To date, this hypothesis has not been explored further in the literature, despite the impressive results from this pilot study.

Definitely a suspicious trial, but why would anyone be interested in publishing fake information to the public, especially when it concerns such a delicate field of research?I think it is all made up.
