mirtazapine has been researched along with Amphetamine Abuse in 7 studies
Mirtazapine: A piperazinoazepine tetracyclic compound that enhances the release of NOREPINEPHRINE and SEROTONIN through blockage of presynaptic ALPHA-2 ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS. It also blocks both 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 serotonin receptors and is a potent HISTAMINE H1 RECEPTOR antagonist. It is used for the treatment of depression, and may also be useful for the treatment of anxiety disorders.

Timeframe: Baseline (week 0) and Final Visit (week 12)
| Intervention | Percentage reduction (Number) |

Proportion of days with recorded pill bottle opening, as determined by MEMS (medication event monitoring system). (NCT00497081)
Timeframe: Daily, from Baseline (week 0) through Final Visit (week 12)
| Intervention | Percentage of recorded openings (Mean) |
|---|---|
| Active Comparator: | 48.3 |
| Placebo Comparator: | 48.7 |
To evaluate the adherence of lorcaserin vs. placebo, the investigators measured adherence as the frequency of taking the study drug as measured by the number of MEMS cap openings (wireless medication monitoring devices that record each opening as a real-time medication event). Cumulative percent adherence was calculated by dividing the frequency of openings at a given time point divided by the number of days since baseline. (NCT03192995)
Timeframe: 12 weeks
| Intervention | percent adherence (Mean) |
|---|---|
| Experimental | 51.6 |
| Control | 66.2 |
To determine the feasibility of retaining individuals on lorcaserin vs. placebo, the investigators have calculated the mean weekly percentage of follow-up visits of those randomized in the study (NCT03192995)
Timeframe: 12 weeks
| Intervention | mean percent of visit retention (Mean) | |
|---|---|---|
| Treatment Group | Control Group | |
| Mean Percent of Weekly Follow-up Visits by Treatment and Control Arms | 83 | 81 |
The outcome measure determines the proportion of self-reported past week cocaine use by Time-Line-Follow-back (TLFB) among lorcaserin and placebo groups at Baseline and at 12 weeks. (NCT03192995)
Timeframe: 12 weeks
| Intervention | Participants (Count of Participants) | |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of self-reported weekly cocaine use by Time-Line-Follow-Up (TLFU) at baseline | Proportion of self-reported weekly cocaine use by TLFU at Week 12 | |

The outcome measure determines the proportion of urine-positive samples with cocaine positivity among lorcaserin and placebo groups at Baseline and at Week 12 (NCT03192995)

|---|---|---|
| Urine positive samples with cocaine use at baseline | Urine positive samples with cocaine use at Week 12 | |
