Also rimonabant was removed from the market due to suicidal ideation. It's a CB1 inverse agonist that acts on the cannabanoid receptor opposite to how marijuana does with the idea being that it would suppress appetite and aid weightloss. It worked (modestly) but it also made people think about killing themselves. That got it removed from the market pretty quickly.
