Pristiq And Pregnancy

Updated

My husband and I decided to try for our third baby. I went in for 2 consultations to make sure that the 50mg I was taking once a day would not cause any problems. I was reassured twice that it was completely safe and would control my panic attacks while I was pregnant. I am 7 months pregnant and my son has been diagnosed with hrhs it is a severe heart condition... Women beware I have had 2 very healthy babies and now my third son is facing a life of open heart surgeries!!!

I am very sorry about your child's diagnosis.

On the Pristiq, I want to ask who told you it was safe?

Learn more Pristiq details here.

The reason I'm asking is because while no controlled studies have been done during pregnancy, it has been shown to cause problems, especially when taken during the third trimester, so use of it during pregnancy is generally not recommended.
