I've been working with a psychiatrist for about 5 years on an interesting study. We got in an argument awhile back about changing a 13 y/o male from lexapro for fluvoxatine. While undergoing majority chemotherapy due to symptoms, he was deemed to not be pediatric despite being under the age of 25.
Some important background includes the patient had anxiety-driven depression, h/o self harm, suicidal ideation, OCD, ADHD, non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, aplastic anemia and various family hx risks.
What was the reason for the fight? Just a heads up, this kid is on multiple mood stabilizers including adderall so that might help with the med change.
