Abstract
Serotonin-reuptake inhibitors (SRIs, SSRIs) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) are currently considered the first-line treatments for body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). A practice guideline and a Cochrane review that recommend these treatments have been published,1,2 even though treatment research on BDD is still quite limited. The publication of these landmark documents underscores how important it is for clinicians to be knowledgeable about current treatment recommendations for BDD, which is a relatively common and often disabling disorder that is associated with high morbidity and mortality (see Didie et al, this issue).
