Good evening! Would it be okay to add a mention of the drug's role in the treatment of depression? There's one review (PMID 23983967) dedicated to this usage of metyparone (published in 2012), and one article in a book (published in 2019) that briefly mentions the use of metyparone in depression (Lazar & McIntyre, "Chapter 34 - Novel Therapeutic Targets for Major Depressive Disorder"). Are these good secondary sources? --CopperKettle 16:34, 1 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
