  • Title: The long-term management of generalized anxiety disorder: issues and dilemmas.
    Author: Schweizer E, Rickels K.
    Journal: J Clin Psychiatry; 1996; 57 Suppl 7():9-12; discussion 13-4. PubMed ID: 8690702.
    Abstract:
    Accumulating evidence suggests that a large proportion of patients diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder suffer from a chronic or recurrent condition that is associated with a moderate amount of disability and impairment in quality of life. Acute drug therapy is well studied and appears to be highly effective in providing symptom relief, but relapse/recurrence is high. Little research has been reported that identifies predictors of recurrence or studies the clinical parameters of maintenance drug therapy, including benefit-risk assessments or optimal doses or durations of treatment.
