We found an association between antidepressant use and an increased risk of suicidality in studies where the diagnosis was major depressive disorder (odds ratio 2.3 [1.3, 3.8]), and where the antidepressant was an SSRI (odds ratio 2.2 [1.3, 3.6]). We did not find evidence for such an association in the complement sets of trials. Although the results based on the hierarchical model are insensitive to model perturbations, the robustness of the FDA's meta-analysis to model assumptions is less clear
