In a single eye-opening reference, Anti-Anxiety Drugs presents the straight facts behind the use of anti-anxiety drugs. Anxiety is an often misunderstood disorder that plagues thousands of people, including teenagers. The prevalence of anxiety disorders has spurred the search for both pharmacological and behavioral ways of treatment. Phobias, panic, and anxiety disorders involve a malfunction in body systems that control fear. In many cases, these imbalances can be treated with drugs, which appear to target fear systems. This volume explores the various anxiety drugs available on the market today and how they can help treat this common disorder.
