[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 57393, member: 1498"] Prozac is the only SSRI antidepressant approved for use by children and adolescents for the treatment of MDD (major depressive disorder). No other antidepressant has been found to be safe and effective enough to gain approval; Prozac is considered only slight more effective than a placebo in treating MDD in children. Prozac, Luvox and Zoloft are approved for use by children and adolescents for the treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Strattera is approved for the treatment of ADD/ADHD in children. No other antidepressants are approved for children and adolescents for any reason. All the antidepressants have the same warnings about suicidality, hostility, mania, etc. [/QUOTE]
