“…The anxiolytic properties of alprazolam and cloba zam have been demonstrated in a number of clinical trials [Cohn, 1981;Brogden et al, 1980]. Although the clinical properties are similar, alprazolam apparently has a more well-established effect on panic attacks and a probable effect in some depressed patients [Chouinard et al, 1983;Fabre and McLendon, 1980], On a milligram to milligram basis, alprazolam is the most potent of the presently available benzodiazepines and possesses a potency about ten times that of diaze pam [Rickels, 1982], This, in turn, is about twice as potent as clobazam [Gerhards, 1979].…”
