Which ADs are best during pregnancy?

Posted by Cindylou on August 27, 2001, at 7:53:44

Hello,
I have heard that Effexor and Prozac are safe during pregnancy. Does anyone know of other antidepressants that are safe (don't cross the placenta) during pregnancy? Are MAOIs strictly "out?" I had a miscarriage on a Zoloft + Wellbutrin combo, so those are out for me.
My last pregnancy I went off ADs altogether, and suffered extreme post-partum depression after delivery. My ob/gyn wants me to consider staying on meds this time -- or at least to start taking them during the third trimester.
Looking for information and experiences.
Thanks,
cindy
