Panic disorder: alprazolam versus cognitive therapy / A. Y. Takriti
ABSTRACT :
Thirty
nine outpatients with panic disorder without agoraphobia were randomly
assigned to individual treatment with either alprazolam (n=20) or cognitive
therapy (CT) (n=19) for a period of twelve weeks. CT patients received an
average of 17.6 sessions while alprazolam patients received an average of 2.4
mg. daily. Both treatment groups showed statistically significant decrease in
panic symptoms as measured by panic symptom questionnaire (Derived from
DSMIII-R) and self rating scale both of which contains 1-7 score. HAM-A and
heart rate showed a significant decrease in alprazolam and not in CT patients, denoting improvement
in generalized anxiety as well as panic symptoms. The data suggests that both
treatments are effective in the treatment of panic disorder. |
