title: [Drug therapies in anxiety disorders of children].
abstract: Although childhood anxiety disorders are currently generating new interest, they continue to pose problems in everyday clinical practice. Drug treatment is far from being the only therapeutic approach but does undeniably have a place which should be clearly defined. The main drugs, dosages, indications, and adverse effects of antidepressants, benzodiazepines, antihistamines and neuroleptics which may be used in children with anxiety disorders are discussed.
