Bulimia Nervosa

Michael A. Davis, MD

DSM IV Diagnostic Criteria for Bulimia Nervosa

The patient engages in recurrent episodes of binging, characterized by eating an excessive amount of food within a 2 hour span and by having a sense of lack of self control over eating during the episode.

The patient engages in recurrent compensatory behavior to prevent weight-gain (eg, self-induced vomiting, laxative, diuretic, exercise abuse).

The above occur on the average twice a week for three months.

The patient’s self evaluation is unduly influenced by body shape and weight.

The disturbance does not occur exclusively during episodes of anorexia nervosa.
