Article history
The antidepressant drugs known as SSRIs, which include the British best-seller Seroxat, may precipitate a small number of individuals into violence, according to a paper published today on the Public Library of Science: Medicine website.
David Healy of Cardiff University, David Menkes of the University of Auckland and Andrew Herxheimer of the Cochrane Centre reviewed data from several sources including Seroxat's manufacturer, GlaxoSmithKline. "The new issues highlighted by these cases need urgent examination in all countries where antidepressants are widely used," they write.
