Abstract

Medical treatment of depression during pregnancy and breastfeeding often involves concern by both the patient and the doctor because of the fear of adverse reactions or malformations of the child. This article gives an updated review on how antidepressants, lithium, antipsychotics and ECT can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and presents a treatment algorithm which is used at Odense University Hospital.
