If they have accurately correlated certain drugs to ALS, that needs to be studied much further, possibly with protocols targeting certain drugs. ALS is a death sentence. You do not go quietly into the night, however. You deteriorate, and all those around feel your pain. It is worse than Dementia and Alzheimers. My personal opinion would be to avoid any of these types of drugs. We do not have a good enough understanding of the brain and the physiology of people. There are so many holistic treatments for depression. Unfortunately, they require exercise of the body and the brain and most people, as we learned during the fake pandemic, are just too lazy to take care of themselves. We work with several neuro stimulation devices. These devices are treating stroke, Parkinsons and Alzheimers. Sometimes with amazing results. Talk to the engineers about ALS and they will tell you they are not even trying. Sadly, the drug industry as we all learned during the fake pandemic only cares about profit. They will try and bury this study and be sure funding is NOT available for further studies.

Amen. All of this.

ALS is just horrible. I have a couple of patients battling it right now now, and I have had two pass away in the last 18 months from it. Horrible horrible disease. You know everything happening to you. With nothing to stop it.

I couldn't agree with you more.

Great point, Jennifer!

Drug A may not cause known issues.

But when used in combination with Drug B or C, may have unforseen consequences.

Raw data is essential.

The goal of all research is to secure funding for further research. (Much like the purpose of all meetings is to schedule the next meeting.) This study is just more obvious than others. If the results were definitive, then there would be no more grant money. Research scientists need to drive Porsches too.
