In reply to crf antagonists in the pipeline?, posted by JohnX2 on December 3, 2001, at 18:00:33
John - None of the crf antagonists have panned out. The one's tested so far only work short term. If they will be of any use at all, the may be used to kcik start antidepressants (ie. give a fater onset of action). Dr.F.Holsboer has a couple studies out in the past couple years explaining why they don't work longer than 2 weeks, but I can't remember the reasoning. All I remember is that the one's that have been tested probably won't be marketed as antidepressants. - Cam
