Sаrаh, а 13 year оld girl is brоught tо your office by her mother. She states that for the past 6 months she has been showering for long periods, up to 5 hours at a time. She says she is unable to stop this behavior although it is distressing to her and causes her skin to crack and bleed. She reports that the symptoms started after she began having recurrent thoughts of being dirty or unclean. This happens frequently during the day. As her anxiety increases she feels the need to shower again. She has to wash herself in a particular order so that she doesn't mix the "dirty soap" with the "clean soap". If that happens she has to start over again. The mother verifies these behaviors. She says that her daughter has always been popular and has a lot of friends at school. She emphatically denies using drugs or alcohol. Her only past medical history is for childhood asthma for which she occasionally uses an albuterol inhaler. Her mental status exam is otherwise unremarkable. You decide to start her on Fluoxetine. Which potential side effect is classified by the FDA with a "black box warning"?
