Ventricular Septal Defects
One of the most common heart defects found in newborns, a ventricular septal defect (VSD) is basically a hole in the wall between the left and right ventricles of the heart.
Has your baby been diagnosed with a Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) or hole in the heart? Were you prescribed antidepressant SSRI drugs such as Prozac, Zoloft, Celexa, Lexapro or Sarafem? SSRIs are a group of drugs known as Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors.
If so, you should know that these medications have been linked with serious heart defects in infants when taken by their pregnant mothers. In fact, Eli Lilly, the manufacturer of Prozac, has acknowledged the link between prozac use by pregnant women and ventricular septal defects in their babies.
