Problem:
What do Craske & Barlow recommend to clients who begin CBT treatment for panic disorder who are already taking medication for the disorder? Group of answer choices Clients should stop taking the medication(s) prior to treatment with CBT because of risk of addiction to the medication. No recommendation is made because the most effective ways of combining CBTs with an already-existing medication regimen are yet to be empirically tested. Clients should consult with their physician about increasing the dosage of medication while in CBT because the exposure components of CBT can be anxiety provoking. This is rarely an issues because the majority of people suffering from panic attacks and entering CBT do not take medication.
