All antidepressants must carry a “black box” warning, the government’s strongest safety alert, linking the drugs to increased suicidal thoughts and behavior among children and teens taking them, the Food and Drug Administration said Friday.

No, this announcement was just made today.

The fact that those drugs have serious side effects, including increased risk of suicide, has been well-known for a while. It's about damn time the FDA did something.

Speaking of labels -- did they ever put a similar warning on Accutane?

you'd be hard pressed to find a product out there that doesn't have a disclaimer or warning on it these days

Yeah, but a black label is something that doesn't happen too often. The medicene has to do something fierce before it gets one.
