Summary: A research study on an investigational medication to treat Premenstrual Syndrome in Teens

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania Medical Center are seeking teens ages 15-19 with premenstrual syndrome to participate in a new medication study. It is hoped that the medications under investigation will relieve monthly symptoms of PMS which include water retention, headaches, depression, anxiety, and severe food cravings.

To participate in the study, a woman must be between 15 and 19 years old and have regular menstrual cycles. Symptoms must be troublesome premenstrually and abate after the arrival of the period. No other medications are to be taken during the study. Qualified volunteers will receive free medications, lab tests, office visits and parking. Appointments are available in Philadelphia and Radnor, PA. For more information, please contact the Premenstrual Syndrome Program at Penn at 1-800-662-4487 or 215-662-3329.
