Is it safe for young people to take antidepressants for bulimia?

0

It may be safe for young people to be treated with antidepressants. However, drug companies who make antidepressants are required to post a “black box” warning label on the medication. A “black box” warning is the most serious type of warning on prescription medicines. It may be possible that antidepressants make children, adolescents, and young adults more likely to think about suicide or commit suicide. The FDA offers the latest information, including which drugs are included in this warning and danger signs to look for, on their Web site at http://www.fda.gov.
