TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Anxiety Disorders A1 - Pepa, Patricia A2 - Sutton, S. Scott PY - 2020 T2 - McGraw Hill’s NAPLEX® Review Guide, 4e AB - Anxiety disorders include panic disorder (PD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety disorder (SAD), and specific phobic disorders. Until the publication of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were classified as anxiety disorders. Now, OCD and PTSD are classified separately from anxiety disorders; however, they will be discussed in this chapter due to significant overlap in medications used to treat these disorders. Specific phobias will not be addressed in this chapter, because pharmacotherapy has only a limited role in phobia treatment. For patients to be diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, the symptoms must cause significant impairment in social or occupational functioning and cannot be due to a general medical condition or substance.
