  • Title: The clinical dilemma--prescribing in pregnancy.
    Author: Ramkisson R, Campbell M, Agius M.
    Journal: Psychiatr Danub; 2008 Mar; 20(1):88-90. PubMed ID: 18376337.
    Abstract:
    Antipsychotic prescription in pregnancy is a complex topic and raises a great deal of anxiety in professionals. There is limited data about atypical antipsychotic prescription in pregnancy and its possible teratogenicity. There are no randomised controlled studies of atypical antipsychotic use in pregnancy due to obvious reasons of ethical issues. We present two cases where a choice had to be made as to whether to prescribe Olanzapine during pregnancy, with different results.
