Psychopharmakotherapie in Schwangerschaft und Stillzeit

What does a psychiatrist have to do with topics like fertility and pregnancy? More than one might think, especially when a patient taking psychotropic medication becomes unexpectedly pregnant or has a desire to have children. Cases like these are not routine for psychiatrists, gynecologists, or general practitioners; they carry double the responsibility. This title consolidates the necessary knowledge to make safe decisions in the interest of both mother and child: - 68 relevant substances from the groups of antidepressants, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, and hypnotics or anxiolytics, along with their effects on the unborn or newborn child. - Recommendations and decision-making aids regarding medication therapy as well as care before, during, and after childbirth. - Answers to frequently asked questions and numerous case studies from practice.
