Association of ocular adverse events with varenicline solution use: a population-based study.

Background: Approved by the FDA in 2021, varenicline solution is the first nasal spray specifically designed to enhance basal tear film production for treating dry eye disease (DED). However, there is a lack of data comprehensively comparing its safety profile to conventional DED therapies. Herein, we assess whether ocular adverse events (AEs) are disproportionately reported with the real-world use of varenicline solution.

Hepatic adverse events associated with ketamine and esketamine: A population-based disproportionality analysis.

Background And Objective: To determine whether there is disproportionate reporting of hepatobiliary disorders in the United States (US) FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) for individuals prescribed ketamine or esketamine.

Design: We identified Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) terms in the FAERS related to hepatobiliary disorders.

Main Measures: Formulations of ketamine and esketamine were evaluated for the proportionality of reporting for each hepatobiliary disorder parameter using the reporting odds ratio (ROR).

Ketamine for the Treatment of Psychiatric Disorders: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Inadequate response to first- and second-line pharmacological treatments for psychiatric disorders is commonly observed. Ketamine has demonstrated efficacy in treating adults with treatment-resistant depression (TRD), with additional off-label benefits reported for various psychiatric disorders. Herein, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine the therapeutic applications of ketamine across multiple mental disorders, excluding mood disorders.
