Norepinephrinergic antidepressants may increase self-injurious behavior in autistic syndromes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 16 April 2020
Summary
There have been many contradictory reports on the effectiveness of antidepressant drug treatments in autistic syndromes with sell-injurious behavior (SIB). We report a retrospective case study in which norepinephrinergic antidepressants (inhibitors of the re-uptake of norepinephrine) increased SIB each time they were administered.
