For Providers Clinical Psychopharmacology Seminar Pharmacologic Treatment of Panic Disorder Original Author: Paul Perry, Ph.D, BCPP Latest Revisers: Paul Perry, Ph.D, BCPP, Brian C. Lund, Pharm.D. Creation Date: 1996 Last Revision Date: April 2004 Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed INTRODUCTION Treatment goals in panic disorder have been divided into two categories, specific and general. Specific treatment goals include preventing panic attacks, reducing intensity of attacks, decreasing anticipatory anxiety and eliminating agoraphobic avoidance. General goals include restoration of functioning and quality of life, preventing relapses and recurrences, and preventing complications (Starcevic 1998). The initial treatment goal is to prevent panic attacks with pharmacotherapy. However, anxiety disorder patients tend to be sensitive to medication and often experience exacerbation of their symptoms with medication, especially if the initial dose is too large. Thus the clinician is advised to "start low, go high, and persist." Once this goal is accomplished patients are encouraged to re-enter phobic situations to help extinguish the avoidance behavior. Exposure therapy eventually ought to result in a disappearance of the anticipatory anxiety. Recently, there has been a shift from exposure to phobic situations, to exposure to panic-like sensations, in an attempt to prevent catastrophizing (Hollander et al 1990). COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY Below a large body of evidence is presented that supports the effectiveness of pharmacotherapy in the treatment of panic disorder.

A panic attack is the sudden, unexpected onset of intense fear and discomfort. The following brief narrative describes what a person with panic disorder might experience: The first time it happened, I was going to the mall to do my Christmas shopping. The mall was very busy and I was going up a crowded escalator. I suddenly felt trapped. My heart was beating beat so fast I thought my chest would burst. I felt faint and started sweating and was very scared. I thought I was going to die. I got off the escalator and made it over to a nearby bench. My legs felt wobbly. I was afraid I wouldn't make it to the bench. After a few minutes, a security guard came over to ask me if I was all right. I looked up at him and told him that I felt very sick. As I talked to him, the feeling started to go away. I was able to drive myself home. The feelings expressed by the person who had a panic attack in the mall are severe symptoms of anxiety:

SAITO THERAPY The best way to cure ANXIETY DISORDER Our aim is to help people to relieve the pain of anxiety with a unique oriental approach. This site is run on a strictly non-commercial basis. We hope to stimulate a constructive debate about Saito Therapy amongst all those who either suffer from or seek to treat Anxiety Disorder What is Saito Therapy This therapy was developed by me (Mr Saito) as a result of suffering from and then curing my own Anxiety Disorder. Saito Therapy is a combination of traditional Japanese Zen meditation and Morita Therapy which was developed by Dr Morita in 1920s. Dr Morita suffered from Anxiety Disorder when he was a university student. He attempted to overcome this disorder by reading books, taking medication, practicing Zen meditation and all sorts of other therapies. But eventually he gave up trying and started studying hard for his exams. He was cured and he became professor of psychiatry at Jikei Medical University. He then began Morita Therapy and this therapy has been accepted as an orthodox method in Japan for nearly 80 years. But despite its reputation and prevalence, it is hard to find anyone who has actually been cured by it. I, myself, underwent Morita Therapy for a total of 4 months and saw no improvement.
