[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 157769, member: 2423"] FYI, Prozac is the only SSRI that is FDA-approved for the treatment of depression in children. Prozac, Zoloft and Luvox are the only SSRIs that are FDA-approved for the treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) (a form of anxiety) in children. All SSRIs carry a warning about an increased risk of suicidal ideation in children. I'm guessing that his medical team will keep him more sedated following the heart surgery than they did when he awoke from the MRI. When you wake up from an MRI, there is nothing to recover from (it's not invasive). Obviously, that's not the case with heart surgery. It's definitely something to ask the surgeon about prior to the surgery. [/QUOTE]
