Reports show that babies born to mothers who took antidepressants during their pregnancy have suffered serious heart and lung defects.
A class of antidepressants known as Selective Serotonin-Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs)—including Paxil, Lexapro, Zoloft, Prozac, Celexa and Effexor—have been linked to serious heart and lung defects.
Studies published in 2006 and 2009 suggest that major birth defects occur as much as six times more often in women who took SSRIs after the 20th week of gestation.
