  • Title: Pharmacotherapy for depressed pregnant women: overcoming obstacles to gathering essential data.
    Author: Wisner KL, Appelbaum PS, Uhl K, Goldkind SF.
    Journal: Clin Pharmacol Ther; 2009 Oct; 86(4):362-5. PubMed ID: 19763116.
    Abstract:
    Approximately 3% of pregnant women take antidepressant medications. Information on the impact of antidepressants on short- and long-term maternal and offspring outcomes is highly desirable but neglected. The position that the dearth of treatment information is of greater concern than the risks to pregnant subjects involved in medical research is gaining support. Mandating the collection of reproductive outcome data in exposed childbearing women is an overdue step toward societal responsibility to our most vulnerable members.
