Phase 3 — Testing in thousands of people, comparing the treatment against what doctors currently use. This is the last big step before approval.
This study is testing whether , an oral lavender oil preparation, can help reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. You would take the medication (or a matching placebo) daily for 12 weeks in addition to any other treatments you're already receiving. Early research suggests this natural supplement may be effective and well-tolerated, offering a gentler option alongside or instead of current PTSD treatments.
Current treatments for PTSD—like intensive talk therapy and antidepressant medications—don't work well for many people, have high dropout rates, or cause uncomfortable side effects. This trial exists because there's an urgent need for new, better-tolerated treatment options, and this medication has shown promise for anxiety disorders and may help PTSD as well.

You would take one capsule of the medication (or placebo) every morning for 12 weeks alongside your regular care. You'll have follow-up visits at weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 of treatment, plus one final check-in 4 weeks after you finish taking the capsules. During these visits, researchers will check in on your PTSD symptoms and how you're doing.
