Antipsychotic Discontinuation and Re-initiation in Pregnant Women With Schizophrenia: A Retrospective Cohort Study From South Korea

We revealed that most pregnant women discontinued schizophrenia treatment, but those using higher cumulative doses had a higher likelihood of re-initiation. Our findings imply that treatment decisions for pregnant women should consider various clinical factors, including the history of prescriptions and obstetric characteristics. Moreover, these patients require close monitoring after discontinuation.

Abstract

We revealed that most pregnant women discontinued schizophrenia treatment, but those using higher cumulative doses had a higher likelihood of re-initiation. Our findings imply that treatment decisions for pregnant women should consider various clinical factors, including the history of prescriptions and obstetric characteristics. Moreover, these patients require close monitoring after discontinuation.
