[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 38202, member: 2423"] Prozac is approved by the FDA for the treatment of depression and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in children. Paxil is not. Most child/adolescent psychiatrists shy away from prescribing Paxil because it can cause episodes of disinhibition and aggression in children, even if they do not have bipolar disorder (it happened to my difficult child 2). Amitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant that is used off-label for pain and as a sleep aid. It causes sedation in most people who take it. [/QUOTE]
