    • Summary:"In just five concise informative chapters, the nine distinguished contributors to Mood and Anxiety Disorders During Pregnancy and Postpartum dispel prevailing beliefs and offer invaluable guidance in treating women during pregnancy and the postpartum period. They assert that pregnancy is a time of vulnerability to - rather than "protection from" - psychiatric illness, present data that support the use of certain antidepressants during pregnancy and postpartum, discuss decisions about what constitutes "reasonable risk" during pregnancy, and call urgently for further studies to enhance our understanding of breastfeeding infant exposure to medications.".
      "Meticulously referenced and succinct, Mood and Anxiety Disorders During Pregnancy and Postpartum provides critical information about the course of illness during pregnancy and postpartum to help guide effective individualized treatment decisions - decisions that are ultimately based on the patient's wishes."--BOOK JACKET.
