The present paper is a review of the treatment of anxious disorders by the current pharmaceutical medications; a short epidemiological survey is given for anxious disorders including: general anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, social anxiety and post‐traumatic stress disorder. For all these disorders there are proposals of treatment built on literature data mainly on meta‐analysis as well on personal experience. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
