The antidepressant procedure becomes news among scientists. A few years ago he not only hid the symptoms of depression, but also caused serious brain problems. In some places the sale of the drug and its use in research was prohibited. At New York University, however, they continued to investigate the secondary consequences Proc produces on animals.

When defining the field of study, the first phase of study was limited to the changes that Procac produces in animal habits. So far it has been proven that Procac increases the tendency to aggression among male rats. The next phase of research will be discussed recently and investigated if the drug causes similar reactions in men. We could be on the threshold of the second phase of the controversy.
