Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Pregnant women without a severe psychiatric disorder who discontinued use of an antidepressant during pregnancy did not have an increased risk of postpartum psychiatric hospitalization compared with women who continued antidepressant use, a population‐based cohort study has found. Those who discontinued use during pregnancy also showed a lower hazard rate for outpatient psychiatric visits after giving birth.
