Medical Update - This weeks brief synopsis from Medical Journals:(Antidepressants and Fracture)1. Adults over age 50 who take SSRI antidepressants (like Prozac, Zoloft, Effexor and others) had twice the risk of bone fracture as those not on antidepressants. These patients had lower bone mineral density in the hips and spine. It was not recommended that patients stop taking their antidepressants.
