Article on how what you are prescribed can limit your ability to obtain individual health insurance in the U.S. Anti-depressants are, perhaps, the number one reason why people are given higher premiums, deductibles, lack of drug coverage or outright denial. If you face having to get individual coverage on your own (i.e. not through an employer or other group insurance policy), and you are on an anti-depressant for IBS symptoms, you'll want to make sure you have your doctor note that the medicine is for IBS treatment, not mental illness and argue with the insurance provider if they try to jack up the rates on you by saying you have a mental condition.
