FDA Requests Boxed Warnings on Older Class of Antipsychotic Drugs

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today exercised its new
authority under the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of
2007 (FDAAA) to require manufacturers of “conventional” antipsychotic
drugs to make safety-related changes to prescribing information, or
labeling, to warn about an increased risk of death associated with the
off-label use of these drugs to treat behavioral problems in older
people with dementia.

In 2005, the FDA announced similar labeling changes for “atypical”
antipsychotic drugs. At that time, Boxed Warnings, the FDA’s
strongest, were added. The Boxed Warning will now be added to an older
class of drugs known as “conventional” antipsychotics. The warning for
both classes of drugs will say that clinical studies indicate that
antipsychotic drugs of both types are associated with an increased
risk of death when used in elderly patients treated for dementia-
related psychosis.

So, you are not only a liar, you are a coward as well?

Did they teach you that in the cult Britt?

Your cowardice is showing.

If you truly are not a Scientologist, then publicly denounce the
church.

We are watching.

It's true 'Brittany', you still haven't told us why you're spamming a
scientology forum with anti-psychiatry posts. If you're not a
scientologist, why are you doing it?

You clam shills are so obvious *guffaw*

You're a broken record Redcoat. I only think for myself and for the
experience that I had in psychiatry as a patient.
