title: Exercise tolerance in panic disorder patients.
abstract: Sixteen panic patients and fifteen normal controls performed submaximal exercise testing on a bicycle ergometer. Only one patient subject panicked. Biochemical, physiological, and psychological data showed similar exercise tolerance in both patients and controls. Exercise-induced distress and lactate increment do not appear to cause panic attacks.
