[quote=Anonymous]Her having the Zoloft is stupid and dangerous because, of course, she shouldn't be experimenting with drugs and it's a sign she might be. But her taking a single Zoloft is not going to endanger her or make her suicidal. SSRI's have to build up in the bloodstream to be effective. It takes several weeks for them to reach any kind of level in which they have effectiveness (much less could cause suicide attempts). That's why they are monitored -- to see if they have reached an effective level or have gotten to too high a level. One pill would be like taking a single penicillin tablet. It's not effective for anything. But you do need to talk to her about where the pill came from, etc. Until she comes clean, I would take privileges away. If she can't talk to you face to face, tell her to write it down or email you.[/quote]
