A former assistant state pathologist has expressed serious concern about the growing link between anti-depressants and suicide.
Dr Declan Gilsenan said in his 30-year experience carrying out postmortems, he had seen "too many suicides" after people had started taking the drugs and questioned whether GPs were over-prescribing them.
He said the evidence is "more than anecdotal" and he is willing to meet the minister with responsibility for mental health on the issue, as part of a delegation organised by campaigner Leonie Fennell.
