Systems and methods for attenuating a panic attack are provided. Such methods can comprise steps of delivering a drug to a subject such that the drug forms a depot (22) beneath a skin surface, wherein the drug is suitable for attenuating a panic attack if delivered in a pharmaceutically effective amount into systemic circulation of the subject; and applying heat (28) to the skin surface when the subject experiences an onset of the panic attack, thereby causing the pharmaceutically effective amount of the drug to rapidly enter systemic circulation from the depot.

L'invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés permettant d'atténuer des crises de paniques. De tels procédés sont caractérisés en ce qu'on administre un médicament à un sujet, de telle façon que le médicament forme un dépôt (22) sous la surface de la peau, le médicament étant approprié pour atténuer une crise de panique s'il est administré en une quantité pharmaceutiquement efficace dans la circulation systémique du sujet, et en ce qu'on applique de la chaleur (28) à la surface de la peau lorsque le sujet souffre d'un début d'attaque de panique, ce qui a pour effet que la quantité pharmaceutiquement efficace du médicament pénètre rapidement dans la circulation systémique à partir du dépôt.
