Antidepressant drugs that boost serotonin availability have shown promise in treating impulsive aggression associated with IED. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that plays a role in regulating mood, behavior, and impulsivity. Low levels of serotonin have been linked to impulsive aggression, and increasing serotonin availability through antidepressant medication can help regulate impulsive behavior.

Testosterone replacement (option D) is not a commonly used treatment for IED.
