Hi Tom.

Riluzole, a antiglutamatergic approved for the treatment of ALS, is currently under investigation for its efficacy in mood disorders:

I tried it last year to no effect. Amazingly, I had it prescribed on The NHS.

Apparently Lamotrigene also has antiglutamatergic properties:

Still heading for the States?
