Etifoxine Lorazepam PD Endpoint: qEEG#29SUMMARY There is an unmet need in GAD for therapies with rapid onset, high efficacy, and minimal side effects SSRI's are current standard of care for GAD but require 4-6 weeks for onset of effect and have several disadvantages¹: 1. SSRI/SNRI-specific inadequacy 2. Lack of tolerability 3. Patient nonadherence to medications that fail to relieve symptoms of anxiety quickly Benzodiazepines are second-line treatment, offering fast and effective relief, but carrying significant risk of: 1.
