Groups2
Group 2 names the comparator: placebo.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Oxytocin | Participants will first receive a nasal spray containing the hormone oxytocin (24 IU, 3 puffs per nostril). After a one-week washout period, participants will come back to the clinic and receive a placebo nasal spray (containing all of the same ingredients as the oxytocin spray minus the active oxytocin ingredient).~Oxytocin: Oxytocin nasal sprays will be self-administered in the presence of a study nurse. The dose is 24 IU (3 puffs per nostril, 4 IU per puff) of Syntocinon nasal spray. | 0 | 34 | EG000 |
| Group 2 | Placebo | Participants will first receive a placebo nasal spray containing a matching formulation as the oxytocin spray (without the active oxytocin ingredient). After a one-week washout period, participants will come back to the clinic and receive an oxytocin nasal spray (24 IU, 3 puffs per nostril).~Placebo: Placebo nasal sprays will be self-administered in the presence of a study nurse. The sprays will contain all of the same ingredients as the Syntocinon spray minus the active oxytocin ingredient. | 0 | 33 | EG001 |
