The US Food and Drug Administration has received 265 reports of suicidal thoughts or behavior in patients taking weight-loss drugs since 2010, Reuters found in an examination of the agency’s adverse-event database. Thirty-six of these reports describe a death by suicide or suspected suicide.
Accounts of suicidal thoughts linked to this class of drugs are drawing increasing scrutiny, including an investigation by European regulators announced in July. In a statement to Reuters, the FDA said it is evaluating such reports and will decide on what action, if any, to take after a thorough review.
