Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are usually well tolerated in the pediatric population, and widely used in the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Of the 51 pediatric patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder seen in our outpatient clinic between January 2009 and July 2009, 3 of them developed behavioral disinhibition after treatment with fluvoxamine. These cases are described and discussed in relation to the use of CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 pharmacogenetic testing in patients treated with serotonin-selective reuptake inhibitors.
