Depression: Suffering
built 669 days ago
In the U.S., an identical strength version of WS(R) 5570 is sold as a natural dietary supplement for promoting a positive mood, rather than a drug for the treatment of depression. This extract (WS(R) 5572) contains the same patented, standardized and stabilized hyperforin content as WS(R) 5570, and is marketed as Perika(R) St. John's Wort by Nature's Way Products, Inc., Springville, Utah. Perika(R) is available nationwide at health and nutrition retail outlets.

In published trials, about 60 percent of participants who took the drugs experienced significant relief from depression compared to 40 percent of those taking a placebo who experienced significant relief. When the unpublished, less positive, trials were included in the analysis, the drugs still out-performed placebo, but the difference between the two shrank to a more modest figure.
