Antidepressants Now Required To Warn Of Increased Suicide Risk
The U.S. FDA on Friday issued a second warning that people taking antidepressant drugs should be monitored for signs of suicidal thoughts and increasing depression…
This follows a link made between antidepressant use and suicide. And it also follows action taken in March 2004, when the FDA said there was an increased risk of suicidal behavior in adults and children taking these drugs. It has ordered the psychiatric drug manufacturers to place a warning on the labels of all antidepressants detailing those heightened risks.
Forbes magazine has reported that the use of these popular antidepressant drugs like Prozac and Zoloft can actually double the odds of the patient attempting suicide. Think about that… that’s not just more people feeling worse and more suicidal. That is the statistic on how many people actually feel more depressed and attempt to take their life!
