Panic disorder precipitated by exposure to organic solvents in the work place

SR Dager, JP Holland, DS Cowley and DL Dunner

The authors describe three cases of idiosyncratic response to occupational solvent exposure, with symptoms characteristic of panic disorder (DSM-III). The specific treatment and prognostic implications of this panic-like reaction to solvents are discussed. Sodium lactate infusion is proposed as an objective test to aid in the diagnosis.
