Agitated depression, alprazolam, and panic anxiety
JP Kahn, E Stevenson, P Topol and DF Klein
Three patients with agitated depression showed rapid and persistent
response to alprazolam. At least two of the patients had prior panic
disorder. Several lines of evidence suggest that agitated depression may
sometimes be caused by unremitting panic anxiety.
