✦ Synopsis


Sixty-two patients with moderately severe anxiety symptoms were treated in a double bline 3-week trial with either oxprenolol, diazepam or placebo. The Hamilton Anxiety Scale and a Target symptom improvement score were the main measures of change used. All treatment groups significantly improved in the three weeks of the trial. However in the third week of treatment improvement was greater in the diazepam and oxprenolol groups. Observer preferences significantly favoured the diazepam group. The implications of the study were discussed.
