  • Title: Long-term treatment of social phobia with clonazepam.
    Author: Davidson JR, Ford SM, Smith RD, Potts NL.
    Journal: J Clin Psychiatry; 1991 Nov; 52 Suppl():16-20. PubMed ID: 1757453.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-six socially phobic outpatients were treated with clonazepam for the relief of symptoms. At evaluation, which took place after an average of 11.3 months of continuous treatment, 22 (84.6%) patients showed good improvement and 4 (14.4%) showed no improvement or were not recovered. The dose declined over time, from a peak mean of 2.1 mg/day to a mean of 0.94 mg/day at follow-up. Side effects are described, along with individual case descriptions that illustrate important aspects of the use of benzodiazepines for the treatment of social phobia.
