If People Only Knew that SSRI’s can have harmful effects for mom and baby during pregnancy.
In this show we talk about informed choice, capitalism in medicine, and health over the years.
Dr. Adam Urato is a Maternal-Fetal Medicine (MFM) physician and attended Harvard Medical School. He has taken a leading role in opposing ineffective drugs and harmful approaches to care in pregnancy including opposing Makena (an ineffective preterm birth drug which the FDA pulled off the market in 2023). He is currently trying to get stronger warnings on the drug label regarding SSRI risks in pregnancy.
