FDA Keeps Boxed Warning About Suicide on Chantix

The Food and Drug Administration says it will keep a bold-letter warning on Pfizer's anti-smoking drug Chantix about suicidal behavior and other psychiatric problems. Pfizer Inc. asked the agency last year to drop the so-called black box warning, pointing to its own analyses that found no difference in psychiatric problems between people taking Chantix and other stop-smoking treatments.
