Abstract：
:Several lines of evidence suggest that the anticonvulsant drug valproate may have antipanic properties: (1) It enhances gamma-aminobutyric acid activity in the brain; (2) it has anxiolytic effects in animal models of anxiety; and (3) it has been reported to be effective in panic disorder in several preliminary studies; however, valproate has not been studied in the prevention of lactate-induced panic attacks. Sixteen patients with panic disorder underwent a lactate infusion followed by a 28-day treatment period with valproate and subsequent rechallenge with lactate. Response was measured by change in panic attack frequency and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAS) scores and by the ability of valproate to block lactate-induced panic on rechallenge. Of the 14 patients completing the 28-day trial, 10 (71%) experienced a greater than 50% reduction in the weekly frequency of panic attacks. Six (43%) had complete remission. HAS scores dropped significantly from a baseline mean of 30.8 +/- 9.4 (SD) to 12.6 +/- 7 after 4 weeks of treatment. Valproate blocked reinduction of panic symptoms on lactate rechallenge in 10 (83%) of 12 patients who had initially experienced panic symptoms on initial infusion. The significant reduction in spontaneous panic attacks and the blockade of lactate-induced panic symptoms by valproate support earlier studies suggesting that the drug may be an effective treatment for panic disorder.
