Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This paper presents a rationale and two case reports exploring the use of hydrocortisone to augment prolonged exposure therapy for combat-related PTSD. The authors hypothesize that glucocorticoids may accelerate learning and reduce fear memory impact, noting one patient showed faster symptom decline compared to a placebo recipient. The resource is intended for clinicians or researchers interested in pharmacological adjuncts to psychotherapy.
