THE SAFETY OF PROZAC (FLUOXETINE) DURING PREGNANCY OR BREASTFEEDING
THIS MEDICATION CAN CAUSE HARM TO YOUR BABY: Prozac (fluoxetine) should only be used during pregnancy if the benefits of treatment to the mom outweigh the potential risks to the baby. Some studies have associated the use of fluoxetine during pregnancy with a higher risk of major birth defects, birth defects in the heart, and birth defects in the skull. Taking fluoxetine later in pregnancy can also cause your baby to be born with health problems, such as breathing problems, low blood sugar levels, or seizures.
