In the United States, Park and colleagues (2017) showed an increase in atypical antipsychotic prescription claims among Medicaidinsured U.S. pregnant women between 2001 (0.4%) and 2010 (1.3%).…”

Purpose: To examine the prevalence of, and factors associated with, atypical antipsychotic use among U.S. pregnant women, and potential associations between early pregnancy atypical antipsychotic use and risk for 14 birth defects. Methods:We analyzed data from the National Birth Defects Prevention Study (1997Study ( -2011, a U.S. population-based case-control study examining risk factors for major structural birth defects.Results: Atypical antipsychotic use during pregnancy was more common among women with pre-pregnancy obesity, and women who reported illicit drug use before and during pregnancy, smoking during pregnancy, alcohol use during pregnancy, or use of other psychiatric medications during pregnancy. We observed elevated associations (defined as a crude odds ratio [cOR] ≥2.0) between early pregnancy atypical antipsychotic use and conotruncal heart defects (6 exposed cases; cOR: 2.3, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.9-6.1), and more specifically Tetralogy of Fallot (3 exposed cases; cOR: 2.5, 95% CI: 0.7-8.8), cleft palate (4 exposed cases; cOR: 2.5, 95% CI:
