Abstract:

The article presents theses of the resolution of the Interdisciplinary Council of Experts in Psychiatry and Neurology (Moscow, 2024) on the issue of comorbid anxiety disorders (AD) in patients with neurological pathologies. The authors highlight the high prevalence of comorbid ADs and their significant negative impact on the course of underlying diseases, such as epilepsy, pain syndromes and post-stroke conditions. Modern approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of ADs in this group of patients are discussed. Special attention is given to the role of etifoxine as an effective anxiolytic in the comprehensive therapy of ADs. Etifoxine, due to its dual mechanism of action on GABA receptors, demonstrates high efficacy in reducing anxiety and has neuroprotective, neurotrophic, neuroplastic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties, making it an important tool in the treatment of comorbid ADs in patients with neurological pathologies. The article also reviews recently published data confirming its efficacy and favourable safety profile compared to traditional benzodiazepines and other anxiolytic drugs.
