What is the leading prescription?I am NOT asking what is the BEST treatment, I am asking (statistically) what is the MOST COMMON treatment and prescription!The reason being, I know these Iraq war veterans are going to be coming home soon, all screwed up in the head, so I wanted to exploit that fact, and buy stock in what ever pharmaceutical company makes medicine to treat them.

To get the best possible care when still in the acute stress phase.Next to that is good cognitive therapy that addresses the thinking and restructuring it. Medication is only for support of the mood while the mind is restructured to process life in a functional way again, after the acute trauma.

Yes, I agree. Cognitive therapy would be a good start.
