Ekspertsvar NHD - Medikament GAD

[lokeren]

Av alle medisiner, hvilket medikament ville du ha anbefalt for en som sliter med GAD? Er det SSRI som er å anbefale? I tillegg til psykoterapi selvsagt. 

[Nils Håvard Dahl, psykiater]

Det er SSRI/SNRI som er å anbefale. Jeg har ikke sett noen artikkel form favoriserer et bestemt stoff innen gruppen. 

For GAD er det metakognitiv terapi som er "drug og choise".

Hør på NHD, men her er en liste over indikasjonene fra http://www.emedexpert.com/compare/ssris.shtml hvor det står masse:

All the SSRIs are licensed for major depressive disorder and are considered to be the first-line treatments of depression. They are prescribed more often for elderly patients than any other psychotropics and are the antidepressant of choice for many practitioners.

The SSRIs differ in their licensed indications for non-depression disorders (which differ between countries).

Celexa (Citalopram) licensed indications:

• depression

Lexapro (Escitalopram) licensed indications:

• major depressive disorder
• generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)

Paxil (Paroxetine) licensed indications:

• major depressive disorder
• obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
• panic disorder
• social anxiety disorder
• generalized anxiety disorder
• posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

Prozac (Fluoxetine) licensed indications:

• major depressive disorder
• obsessive-compulsive disorder
• moderate to severe bulimia nervosa
• panic disorder

In January 2003, Prozac (fluoxetine) was approved by the FDA for the treatment of depression and OCD in children and adolescents who are 7 to 17 years of age.

Zoloft (Sertraline) licensed indications:

• major depressive disorder
• obsessive-compulsive disorder
