Abstract

Panic disorder, a mental illness that causes panic attacks as the main symptom, is an important subgroup of anxiety and fear disorders, but it has received little attention and research until recent decades. After it was included in the DSM-II in 1980, researchers began studying drug treatments for the disorder. Among the many drugs, the two most effective are 5-HT reuptake inhibitors and benzodiazepines, and the two most representative drugs are fluoxetine and alprazolam. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of fluoxetine and alprazolam in the treatment of panic disorder by studying the structure, synthesis, pharmacology and economic benefits of the two drugs, as well as to analyze the methods of clinical use of the drugs.
