Ketamine has demonstrated effect for improving depression and PTSD symptoms independently but reports often overlook focused comorbid improvement of these symptoms within individuals.

Molecular mechanisms underlying the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor antagonists: Highlighting their potential for transdiagnostic therapeutics.

Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry July 1, 2022 Christina Driver, Timothy N. W. Jackson, Jim Lagopoulos et al.

The so-called "psychedelic renaissance" has stimulated expanded interest in several classes of drugs that appear to possess transdiagnostic effects in the treatment of mental health disorders, specifically.
