> The one thing I'm worried about is the fact that he CAN'T switch doctors, and his mother doesn't seem to mind his side affects very much at all. But is there any other drug that is approved for teens? There must be. But for some reason they never seemed to discuss any other options with him.
That's a bad situation, all around. I'm sorry he's having to deal with that.
As far as drugs approved for teens, I think Prozac is? I think that's the only SSRI that's approved. Anyone know about TCAs? They've been aroudn longer, so they might have more evidence of safety or not in teens...
