Nearly every year, as part of the suicide prevention drug pushing racket, drug company shills publish a bogus study with claims that more people are dying from suicide due to a black box warning of an increased risk of suicide in young people on the labels of SSRI and SNRI antidepressants.
Although the FDA did announce that the black box warnings, for children under 18, would be added to antidepressants in October 2004, the warnings were not on the labels until the spring of 2005. The extended warnings, to include young persons through age 24, were not added until mid-2007.
This year's bogus study was announced on June 2, 2009, with a WebMD headline asking: "Are Antidepressant Warnings Causing Harm?" The study titled, "Persisting Decline in Depression Treatment After FDA Warnings," was published in the "Archives of General Psychiatry," with claims that there has been a drastic drop in the diagnosis of depression in both children and adults.
