So the FDA is having a hearing about whether antidepressant labels should mention the risk of increased suicidal thinking.
Well, that's an interesting thought-- you're seriously depressed and your pill bottle says:
"Hey, man. You ever think about just ending it all? Eat me, and that could happen. Happen more, that is. Life is hard. So hard."
I think a better label would say something like:
"Hey, man! No pill is perfect, but this pill can help some! Hang in there, things will turn around. Come on-- would it kill you to at least finish the prescription?"
"Hey, man! No pill is perfect, but this pill can help some! Hang in there, things will turn around. Come on-- would it kill you to at least finish the prescription?"
