Many patients with schizophrenia suffer from panic disorder. Although Panic Control Treatment (PCT), a cognitive-behavioral intervention for panic disorder, has been found efficacious in a number of controlled studies with careful selection criteria for participants, little is known about the utility of this treatment for patients with schizophrenia who also suffer from panic disorder. Four patients with schizophrenia received 15-17 individual sessions of PCT for their panic disorder. After treatment, clinicians rated all patients’ panic disorder as less severe than at pretreatment, and three of the patients no longer met diagnostic criteria for panic disorder. Positive psychotic symptoms seem to improve as a result of treatment in some patients. Furthermore, a 6-month follow-up assessment of one patient suggests good maintenance of treatment gains. Although a modification of the treatment protocol seems necessary, the results point to the clinical utility of PCT for treating panic disorder in patients with schizophrenia. These findings suggest that a controlled clinical trial may be warranted.
