From Substack, written by Bryan Shapiro MD. “The following is a rapid-fire, scientific rebuttal of the recent psychiatric times article “The Top 10 Misleading Claims About Antidepressants” by Roger McIntyre, MD and Ronald Pies, MD. Note that items 5 + 6 regarding suicidal and homicidal associations with antidepressants are not addressed.
Ironically, the article itself contains many misleading claims that are not substantiated by fundamental pharmacological principles or adequate quality evidence.”
