Addressing methodological concerns in omega-3 trial for bipolar disorder relapse prevention.

Our response addresses concerns raised about our pilot trial on omega-3 for bipolar disorder. We clarify randomization procedures, highlight the benefits of eicosapentaenoic-predominant formulations for a specific bipolar patients subgroup, and justify the use of Kaplan-Meier analysis despite limitations. We acknowledge analytical challenges due to strict inclusion criteria and encourage future research on specific bipolar subtypes and larger-scale trials for robust validation.
