Abstract
Oxytocin is mostly known for its pro-social effects and may increase positive emotions, and as such may be a relevant treatment option for PTSD. Although oxytocin indeed showed some alleviating effects on PTSD in the study by Koch et al., effects were small and the clinical significance of these findings remains to be determined.
Translated title of the contribution | Oxytocin for the treatment of PTSD? |
