This study is designed to evaluate anxious patients who are only partially responsive to
typical SSRI or SNRI anti-anxiety medication therapy. Patients who are less than 50%
anxiety-alleviated on their SSRI medication will be asked to join the study and be placed on
Acamprosate as well. This type of add-on therapy is common in outpatient psychiatric care.
This is a rater-blinded, patient open-label, non-placebo prospective study, where all
subjects will receive Acamprosate for 8 weeks. This study would be the first to date in this
treatment-resistant patient population, as the investigators will utilize the a comprehensive
set of rating scales in order to best categorize patient responses in regards to anxiety,
co-occurring depression, sleep disorders, alcohol use, and social functioning with this drug.
This study may be pivotal to the initiation of future double-blind, placebo-controlled
studies for this agent
