  • Title: Vulnerability to sodium lactate in panic disorder patients given cognitive-behavioral therapy.
    Author: Shear MK, Fyer AJ, Ball G, Josephson S, Fitzpatrick M, Gitlin B, Frances A, Gorman J, Liebowitz M, Klein DF.
    Journal: Am J Psychiatry; 1991 Jun; 148(6):795-7. PubMed ID: 2035724.
    Abstract:
    Six patients with panic disorder who had panicked during sodium lactate infusion were given cognitive-behavioral treatment for 12-24 weeks. After treatment they underwent another lactate infusion, and four patients were rates as having no panic, suggesting that reduced vulnerability to lactate accompanies remission of panic. Controlled trials of cognitive-behavioral therapy and use of lactate infusion as a measure of remission are recommended.
