Yes. Studies have been made about this matter and a connection was found between birth defects and the use of antidepressants. Although this is still to be greatly considered as depressed pregnant women cannot be immediately taken off the medications. It would be up to the physician to weigh down the pros and cons of the situation.

Indeed studies have shown that there is an increase risk of birth defects for babies from mothers who had taken Paxil during the first trimester of their pregnancy. You can look it up at http://www.paxilbirthdefectlaw.com/paxil-prem... . And premature delivery is also associated with Paxil use.

These are also shown in previous studies and that the pregnancy risk category of antidepressant like Paxil is raised to a D. This means that there is a risk for the fetus when taking the drug. It can also cause premature delivery, you can see it at http://www.paxilbirthdefectlaw.com/paxil-prem... .

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Libra

It's one of those difficult days when anything can and will happen. Someone you were relying on might let you down, plans could be changed at the eleventh hour or a machine could go on the blink. To make matters worse, your energy levels are very erratic, so you feel full of beans one minute and ready to go to sleep the next. Don't make the situation worse by eating foods that give you a high followed by a slump.
