------------------------------

When a black-box warning is issued, it informs healthcare providers and prescribers of serious adverse effects of specific drugs and enhances their clinical judgment.

For example: when atypical antipsychotics were assigned a black box warning for use in patients with dementia (as it increases the risk of death) – prescription use of antipsychotics for this population declined thereafter.

 

The same is true for many other medicines, too. For instance, when the antidiabetic drug – rosiglitazone – was issued a black box warning, use of that medicine declined by almost three-quarters. Prescribers seek alternative medicine choices to reduce any potential risk to the affected population.
