The Occurrence of Suicidal Thoughts, Self-Harm, or Suicide is More Likely if:

  • The Patient has Had Suicidal Thoughts or Self-Harm in the Past;
  • The Patient is a Young Adult - Clinical Trial Data Indicate an Increased Risk of Suicidal Behavior in People Under 25 with Mental Disorders Taking Antidepressant Medications.

If the Patient Experiences Suicidal Thoughts or Self-Harm, They Should Immediately Contact Their Doctor or Go to the Hospital.
