Is NeuroStar Safe?

In short: yes, NeuroStar is safe for qualifying patients. In fact, safety is one of the many reasons why NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy is recommended by medical professionals. NeuroStar is safer, lower risk, and has very limited or no side effects compared to treatments like medication, electroconvulsive therapy, and surgery.

Clinical trials conducted on over a hundred thousand patients who received almost six million NeuroStar treatments back up the safety and efficacy of NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy. NeuroStar has been extensively studied, and no evidence of severe or adverse side effects was reported in these trials.

Some patients did experience mild side effects. In these patients, side effects only appeared after the first couple of sessions and disappeared entirely after subsequent treatments. Side effects, if experienced, were very mild, such as a light headache, and were easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief. The side effects of NeuroStar are almost non-existent compared to those of medication or electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), making it a more popular treatment option for our patients.

NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy is known for its safety and minimal risk, partly because it requires no downtime, recovery, or post-treatment monitoring. Unlike medication, NeuroStar does not cause any systemic adverse effects. Unlike other treatments, such as ECT, which require clinical observation to prevent severe adverse effects, NeuroStar allows you to resume your daily activities immediately. Supported by well-researched clinical evidence, NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy is considered very safe for treating major depressive disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and major depressive disorder with anxious depression when administered as intended by a qualified professional.
