In this episode, we delve into a new horizon in the management
of acute agitation. We discuss dexmedetomidine, a drug that's been
around since 1999, recently reformulated into a sublingual film and
FDA approved for treating agitation associated with schizophrenia
or bipolar I or II disorder. We explore the results from a recent
randomized trial and its potential for transforming psychiatric
care.
