Airline Pilots On Antidepressant Psychiatric Drugs, FAA Approves, Peter McCarthy
June 29, 2010
The FAA recently removed a ban which now allows airline pilots to fly when they are taking certain types of antidepressant medications.
Antidepressant drugs have a host of unwanted side effects associated with them that could potentially affect a pilots ability to control a plane.
Additionally, do you really want to be on a plane with a pilot who has been diagnosed with a mental disorder such as depression and bipolar disorder? It is also known that 2 out of 3 people taking antidepressant medications still experience symptoms of depression even when taking the drugs.
