News Flash archive—Prozac for kids

What in the world are they trying to do to our children?? Last week, the pharmaceutical companies finally succeeded in getting the FDA to approve using Prozac (a potent mind-altering drug used for depression) on children seven years old and up! I suppose their approval doesn’t really make that much difference anyway because some doctors have reportedly been using the drug on some 4-year-old children. Now, however, a sense of legitimacy has been added to this heathenish practice. Doctors should be ashamed of themselves! How do you determine if a small child is depressed—because they cry? If we are not careful Prozac may be recommended for all children who have frequent crying spells! Stranger things have happened where there is such a huge amount of money at stake.
