title: Behaviour therapy and benzodiazepines: allies or antagonists?
abstract: Behaviour therapy and benzodiazepines are directed towards common problems and are often used in combination. At present we know little about the beneficial or adverse interactions of these two treatments. This paper reviews the available literature and suggests that there are important theoretical and clinical issues to be resolved.
