Abstract

The efficacy and risk of reported suicidal ideation/suicide attempt of antidepressants for treatment of pediatric major depressive disorder (MDD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and non-OCD) anxiety disorders are assessed. The results have shown that the effects are strongest in non-OCD anxiety disorders, intermediate in OCD and more modest in MDD.
