| Description | Anxiety disorders are among the most frequent mental disorders. Anxiolytics and antidepressants are primarily used to treat anxiety, with a great deal of attention being paid to the development of novel drugs, if possible, without adverse effects such as sedation or those causing dependence, sexual dysfunction, and/or weight alterations. People have always tried to manage anxiety and its bodily manifestations by using plants; lavender extract, introduced here in more detail, is the only registered anxiolytic of plant origin. |
