FDA Warning: Suicidality and Antidepressants
ADs increased the risk compared to placebo of suicidal thinking and behavior (suicidality) in children, adolescents, and young adults in short-term studies of MDD and other psychiatric disorders. Anyone considering the use of [name of AD] in a child, adolescent, or young adult must balance this risk with the clinical need. Short-term studies did not show an increase in the suicidality risk with ADs compared to placebo in adults beyond age 24; there was a reduction in risk with ADs compared to placebo in adults aged 65 and older. Depression and certain other psychiatric disorders are themselves associated with increases in the risk of suicide. Patients of all ages who are started on ADs should be monitored appropriately and observed closely for clinical worsening, suicidality, or unusual changes in behavior. Families/caregivers should be advised of the need for close observation and communication with the prescriber.

Barbiturates
• Bind within the GABA-mediated chloride ion channel increasing chloride ion conductance • Increases the duration of opening, thereby hyperpolarizing
the neuron • Reduction in excitability of neuron and CNS depression • Increases chloride ion conductance independently of
GABA • DANGEROUS, LETHAL in overdose!!! CNS depression and
respiratory depression • Significant and fast tolerance • Very high potential for dependence

Benzodiazepines • GABA availability is the rate-limit step! • Thus, much less dangerous than barbiturates • DANGEROUS when with other CNS depressants like alcohol • CNS depression and respiratory depression • Avoid in patients with alcohol problems • Ataxia and falls in the elderly • Confusion, memory impairment • Paradoxical excitation • REM suppression • Dependence and abuse potential • Tolerance
