Abstract
Introduction: Women are more likely to develop depression during the perinatal period than at any other time in their lives. Studies from recent years raise significant concerns regarding the potential of a depressive disorder in the pregnant mother to cause adverse obstetric results for the mother and the newborn. As antidepressants can penetrate the placenta to different degrees, concern has been raised regarding their teratogenic potential. In recent years various inconsistent and ambiguous reports specifying mild risks to the fetus and newborn from exposure to serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) during pregnancy have been published. This paper provides a review of current medical knowledge regarding the pharmacological treatment with common antidepressants such as SSRIs and SNRIs in pregnant women. Based on this review we also present treatment and follow-up recommendations of the major published guidelines for the treatment of serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs and SNRIs) during pregnancy for the medical care providers.
