Treatment Settings

The evolving role for lofexidine in the treatment of opiate detoxification over the last decade is reviewed. Lofexidine is no better than methadone or clonidine in attenuating withdrawal symptom severity, although it has a more favourable side-effect profile than clonidine. In conjunction with opiate antagonists, lofexidine may facilitate accelerated withdrawal, although activity and low liability for misuse, lofexidine may be more widely acceptable to clinicians than methadone, particularly those working in out-patient, non-specialist and prison treatment settings. Further studies in these treatment settings will be particularly apposite since, apart from the studies highlighted, the evidence base for the clinical value of lofexidine is mainly to be derived from in-patient trials.

Purpose Negative cognitions related to tinnitus sensation have been previously shown to affect the level of emotional distress. Anxiety sensitivity is another psychological factor that influences individuals to more closely monitor their own bodily sensations, resulting in increased negative cognitions and negative emotional responses among tinnitus patients. However, increasing acceptance of tinnitus sensation may attenuate emotional distress. The goal of this research was to investigate the relationship between negative tinnitus-related cognitions, acceptance, and anxiety sensitivity. Method Two hundred sixty-seven participants completed online measures of the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (Newman, Jacobson, & Spitzer, 1996), Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (Hayes, Follette, & Linehan, 2004), and the Anxiety Sensitivity Index–3 (Taylor et al., 2007). Results Hierarchical regression analyses indicated that acceptance fully mediated the relationship between negative tinnitus-related cognitions and anxiety sensitivity. Conclusions On the basis of these results, it is suggested that practitioners improve acceptance of tinnitus sensation, duration, and intensity. More research is warranted on the clinical techniques to improve acceptance.
