I am not sure if this issue has been discussed already on Vision2020<br>
regarding firearm violence, but it appears to have credible basis as a<br>
causal factor influencing violent behavior with firearms. The warnings on<br>
some anti-depressant psychiatric medications explicitly indicate that the<br>
drugs can induce violent thoughts and/or behavior:<br>
<br>
The following peer-reviewed study includes the following paragraph:<br>
Prescription Drugs Associated with Reports of Violence Towards Others<br>
<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0015337" target="_blank">http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0015337</a><br>
<br>
Despite limited clinical study, numerous drugs contain FDA-required<br>
warnings to doctors or patients about the possibility of aggressive or<br>
violent acts. Among the drugs with warnings about aggressive behaviors are<br>
varenicline, zolpidem, montelukast, and all antidepressant drugs.<br>
