for the pharmaceutical company bottom line. The whole point of adding the warnings was to make physicians aware of possible horrific consequences (very low probability) to weigh against the possible good that they could do. It only makes sense that fewer prescriptions would be written after the warning was added.

So I am not sure what the beef is here. I am very suspicious that some pharmaceutical companies are trying to spin this result into being a negative thing.

Overall I would agree that we all might be a little distressed about the direction of the country, but if parents were stealing their kids' antidepressants (haha) I don't think the statistics would necessarily show that. It would still be under the kid's name.

Could more people be ordering them from Canada?

OTOH, I haven't heard of many mass school killings in the past couple of years. Maybe they are keeping these medications out of the wrong hands.
