Man With Criminal Record Assaults Woman in Restroom

October 21, 2009

Sentences three through five read:  "Flavell's court-appointed attorney Neil Madden said Flavell takes Prozac and was drinking Captain Morgan rum Thursday. Madden said his client "doesn't remember entering Massachusetts General Hospital. He remembers being with a friend and he remembers ending up in jail.’’

SSRI Stories Note:  Amnesia is listed as a Frequent side effect for Prozac in the Physicians Desk Reference.  The Physicians Desk Reference states that antidepressants can cause a craving for alcohol and alcohol abuse.  Also, the liver cannot metabolize the antidepressant and the alcohol simultaneously,  thus leading to higher levels of both alcohol and the antidepressant in the human body.
