Family-based treatment more effective than supportive psychotherapy in treating bulimia
Date:9/3/2007

he six-month follow-up; however, the difference was statistically in favor of family-based treatment vs. supportive psychotherapy (12 patients [29 percent] vs. 4 patients [10 percent]), the authors write.

Results suggest that family-based treatment for bulimia nervosa is promising in the amelioration of symptomatic behavior for this disorder, the authors conclude. However, we do not know whether it is family involvement or the focus on eating behavior that is key to good treatment outcome. Moreover, abstinence rates between 30 percent and 40 percent leave considerable room for improvement.
