Birth Defects Caused by Sarafem
Did you take the antidepressant drug Sarafem (generic name fluoxetine) while pregnant? Was your baby born with a heart defect? You should be aware that Sarafem is one of a group of drugs known as SSRIs that has been the subject of Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") warning over concern that it can cause heart problems in babies. These heart defects may include atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defects, tetralogy of fallot, hypoplastic left heart syndrome,transposition of the great arteries (TGA or TOGA), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR), double outlet right ventricle (DORV), and coarctation of the aorta (CoA).
Recent studies have also shown a connection between SSRI antidepressants and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
