Developments in the medical management of anxiety tend, over the last two decades, to have clustered around modifications to the early benzodiazepines. These developments have given the psychiatrist a wide range of options in terms of intensity and duration of action but have carried with them the range of penalties associated with the benzodiazepines as a group. These include among others addiction potential and a sometimes inappropriate level of sedation. The need has been for a new drug, unrelated to the benzodiazepines and which is more specifically orientated towards anxiety. Buspirone, it seems, may well be such a drug. This paper discusses the anxiety disorders, the drug management of anxiety, the problems associated with traditional anxiolytics and the recent availability of a new class of drug in this indication.
