Dangers of Anti Depressants Reduce Prescriptions, Increase Dangers
[From article]
Between 2003 and 2004 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued warnings that antidepressants were linked to an increased risk of suicidal thoughts in about one per cent of children and teens.
The agency required the warning to be printed on antidepressant drug labels in October 2004.
The warnings were expanded to include young adults in 2007.
Previous studies had found antidepressant use fell after the warnings were issued but that use of other treatments for depression, such as therapy, did not increase.

Warning that antidepressants may increase the risk of suicide led to MORE people trying to take their own lives
In 2004 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said antidepressant packs had to carry a warning that they could increase suicide risk in young people
It is thought this warning made doctors reluctant to prescribe them
Some young people therefore went untreated - and suicide attempts rose
