Pregnant women should be aware that the FDA and the medical community warn that Zoloft (Sertraline) can cause a number of birth defects in children. Taken during the last half of pregnancy, Zoloft (Sertraline) can cause Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn (PPHN). One study attributed an increase in the incidence of PPHN by a factor of between six and twelve.
The FDA has issued multiple warnings associated with Zoloft’s birth defect risks. Yet many women remain unaware of the effect that Zoloft can have on their children. A child who experiences a Zoloft-induced birth defect may need surgeries later in life and, in some case, will require intensive, expensive health care for the rest of his or her life.
