ADHD Drugs Connected to Deaths, Black Box Warning To Follow
This is just out on the wires: The FDA will require Ritalin, Concerta, Adderall and other ADHD drugs to carry a black box warning about possible dangerous side effects. I noted a few months back that the FDA was heading in this direction. Now, the FDA has also admitted that as many as 25 deaths can be connected with these drugs. I'm glad they are taking some action--although the warning is little more than a warning, it's not a restriction--but what the hell took them so long?
