G Beaumont

In a large, open, multicentre trial, conducted in general practice, 765 patients suffering from agoraphobia or social phobias were treated with clomipramine (Anafranil, Geigy Pharmaceuticals). Four hundred and eight patients completed a twelve-week course of treatment. Of 285 withdrawals, 139 were due to side-effects. Good results were obtained on all measures of phobias in those patients who completed the study, the improvements being of the order of 70-80%, and over 50% of patients being symptom-free.
