[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 245379, member: 2423"] NIMH research shows that Prozac can be more helpful to kids with anxiety than placebo alone. Prozac plus CBT is more helpful than either alone, according to the same research study. So I think it's irresponsible to say that no one under 18 should take an SSRI (and this is coming from a mom who doesn't particularly like SSRIs because her three kids have had bad reactions to them). I do agree that kids can experience bad side effects to SSRIs, whether they have BiPolar (BP) or not. That just means that we as parents need to be ever-vigilant whenever our children trial any new medication. [/QUOTE]
