Baylor SD et al. – Depression, mood disorders, and other psychiatric disorders are prevalent, with the highest incidence occurring at the onset of the childbearing years in women. It is important to weigh the risks and benefits of all treatment options during pregnancy. Untreated depression, psychosis, and mood disorders can have ill effects on both the patient and the infant; however, pharmacotherapy also may cause negative outcomes for the baby. Because of this, it is important for the patient taking psychotropics to have a thorough discussion with her HCP about whether to continue or discontinue pharmacotherapy during pregnancy.
