Chapter 16.Panic Disorder
Sections
Excerpt
In this chapter we review pharmacological and psychological treatments for panic disorder. The recommendations stem from a combination of practice guidelines (American Psychiatric Association 2009) and review of the literature. We focus on interventions that have solid empirical support in the form of at least one well-designed randomized controlled trial (RCT). For pharmacological treatments, we avoid providing specific dosing recommendations for particular drugs, as this information may be obtained from other sources that are frequently updated (e.g., manufacturers’ Web sites). We do not discuss the treatment of special populations (e.g., older adults, children, pregnant women) because of space limitations.
