Abstract: Methods for treating an individual with a psychiatric disorder with a pharmacologic agent that enhances learning or conditioning in combination with a session of psychotherapy are provided. These methods of the invention encompass a variety of methods of psychotherapy, including exposure-based psychotherapy, cognitive psychotherapy, and psychodynamically oriented psychotherapy, and psychiatric disorders including fear and anxiety disorders, addictive disorders including substance-abuse disorders, and mood disorders. The pharmacologic agents used for the methods of the present invention are ones that generally enhance learning or conditioning, including those that increase the level of acetylcholine in the brain, and those that enhance N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor transmission in the brain.

Abstract: Methods are disclosed for improving treatment of various medical conditions via administration of D-cycloserine to facilitate learning. Specifically, by administering D-cycloserine on a post-training pre-sleep basis, subsequent to extinction training during the day, the methods can improve upon the known ability of D-cycloserine to facilitate extinction learning.

Abstract: Methods for treating an individual with a psychiatric order with a pharmacologic agent that enhances learning or conditioning in combination with a session of psychotherapy are provided. These methods of the invention encompass a variety of methods of psychotherapy, and psychodynamically oriented psychotherapy, and psychiatric orders including fear and anxiety disorders, addictive disorders, addictive disorders including substance-abuse disorders, and mood disorders. The pharmacologic agents used for the methods of the present invention are ones that generally enhance learning or conditioning, including those that increase the level of norepinephrine in the brain, those that increase the level of acetylcholine in the brain, and those that enhance N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor transmission in the brain.

Abstract: The invention provides methods and compositions for treating anxiety-related disorders in a subject. The methods include sublingually administering D-cycloserine to a subject with the anxiety-related disorder, either alone or in combination with extinction training.
