characteristics, comparing prior exposure with current exposure: RR of ADHD 0.78 (0.63–0.96), or sibling characteristics: RR of ADHD 1.11, CI 0.78–1.60. When these more similar cohorts were compared, the relationship did not reach signi­cance. Results were similar for ASD.All cohorts, exposed or previously exposed to antipsychotics, were far more likely to develop ADHD or ASD, suggesting that the relationship may not be mediated by the direct effect of antipsychotic medication on the baby’s developing brain, but related instead to the indication for treatment in the mother. This is consistent with earlier research suggesting an association between ADHD and ASD in children of women with mental health disorders (Fairthorne etal. 2016; Vizzini etal. 2019; Nidey etal. 2021). The authors noted that, despite their use of tools which assess for bias, their analysis was limited by the limitations inherent in the studies examined:
1. The heterogeneity of diagnoses for which antipsychotics are utilised, which
made it more difcult to ascertain whether there was a specic underlying diag­nosis, or severity of illness, more closely associated with the development of ADHD or ASD.
2. Whether there is a dose effect, or if specic antipsychotics are more closely
associated with development of ADHD/ASD.
3. Whether a longer-term follow-up may ascertain a larger number of cases.
These issues remain open for subsequent research.

8.15 Conclusion

Table 8.1 shows expert recommendations based on scientic evidence and clinical experience on this topic.
A woman with a diagnosis of major mental illness facing pregnancy also faces a host of related challenges which include the direct effect of her illness on her mental and physical health and that of her baby, and also the social and economic disadvan­tage that this illness confers.
There is a broad consensus on important contributing factors to adverse out­comes for women in this population: poorer general health in women suffering major mental illness including high rates of obesity and diabetes, increased rates of smoking, alcohol and illicit drug use. For pregnant women in particular, factors contributing to adverse outcomes include reduced attendance at antenatal appoint­ments, reduced use of prenatal vitamins, folate and thyroid hormone, increased rates of unplanned and unwanted pregnancy, limited social support and increased rates of domestic abuse, poverty and disadvantage.
The study of the impact of antipsychotic medications in pregnancy is complicated by the imperative for many women to remain well in pregnancy and the postpartum. Multiple potential error sources in data derived from studies observing these women include confounding by indication; such confounders already identied include severity of illness, socioeconomic, historical or lifestyle factors, and detection bias.

Table 8.1 Expert recommendations based on scientic evidence and clinical experience
Pre-conception planning for women with major mental illness includes contraception and fertility advice and management in addition to medication safety advice in pregnancy Women with major mental illness require both physical and mental health monitoring throughout pregnancy Physical health issues to address with women presenting with major mental illness in pregnancy include Support around smoking, drug and alcohol use cessation Prenatal vitamin supplementation Evidence-based advice around medication safety Avoid or minimise polypharmacy and switching medications Mental health monitoring and support includes additional support for social safety, including detecting and addressing issues of homelessness, domestic abuse, and social disadvantage or poverty Assess for and address obesity in all women of childbearing age who present with a major mental illness Monitor and manage obesity in pregnancy for women taking antipsychotic medications Assess for and manage diabetes in pregnancy for women taking antipsychotic medications, including liaison with expert medical teams Antipsychotic medication and congenital abnormalities Whereas the data does not at this stage suggest signicantly increased risk of structural abnormalities for babies exposed to antipsychotic medications in utero, the evidence base is small Antipsychotic medication can increase the risk for premature birth, low birth weight or small for gestational age infants, or high birth weight infants Consider intrauterine ultrasound for structural and growth abnormalities in all babies exposed to antipsychotic medication in utero. In particular, consider high-resolution ultrasound for cardiac defects at 20weeks and at 36weeks A baby exposed to antipsychotic medications in utero is at increased risk of neonatal withdrawal symptoms and distress; ensure that tertiary neonatal support is available at delivery There is at present no strong evidence supporting developmental delay or disadvantage for babies exposed to antipsychotic medication in utero
221
What is striking about recent research is that more sophisticated methods of analysis suggest that problems relating to the experience of disadvantage for women with a major mental illness may actually form a signicant aspect of the negative outcomes measured for these women (Vigod et al. 2015). There are two further conclusions that can be drawn from this: rstly, that harms previously attributed either to the illness itself or to antipsychotic medication treatment may relate more closely to socioeconomic factors.
Secondly, if a more holistic approach to support of these women in pregnancy included efforts to avert homelessness, identify and protect against physical or emotional abuse, support the use of prenatal vitamins, and reduce incidence of smoking, alcohol and illicit drug use, a large proportion of the harms to the foetus and baby could be minimised. Hence care in pregnancy for women with a major mental illness needs to encompass far more than just careful prescribing of appro­priate medications; this is only the rst step in averting harm. As psychiatrists, we must advocate for best practice in using evidence-based prescribing as part of an overall care package which incorporates these other elements as well.

Emerging evidence does suggest that iatrogenic harms can accrue to the mother and her baby from psychotropic medication treatment. In the case of antipsychotic medication, the harms seem to be becoming more clearly dened. In the rst instance, the risk of harms to women appears to be shifting slightly over time. Whereas the risk of reduced fertility from hyperprolactinaemia was previously highly prevalent and associated with rst-generation antipsychotic medication (Ajmal et al. 2014), reproductive risks in the era of widespread use of second­generation antipsychotic medication relate more to the risks associated with obesity and diabetes in pregnancy (Newham etal. 2008).
A common thread in several recent research papers is the risk of pre-pregnancy weight gain for subsequent development of gestational diabetes. This suggests that this risk should be considered for every woman with reproductive potential suffer­ing a major mental illness from the age of 15–50. This is especially important given the increased rates of unplanned pregnancy in this group. The cascading risks relat­ing to obesity and gestational diabetes for both mother and baby in pregnancy include increased rates of congenital malformations and macrosomia, increased rates of instrumental delivery and emergency caesarean section, and increased rates of transfer to neonatal intensive care.
Despite these associated risks, the risk and rate of major congenital abnormali­ties relating directly to exposure to antipsychotic medications in pregnancy does not seem to be signicantly elevated (Huybrechts etal. 2016). However, rates of neona­tal distress and withdrawal symptoms are high in these babies, and seem to be higher for some antipsychotic medications than others. There is some very limited research to suggest that there is also a dose-related increase in these symptoms.
Notably, in addition to all the socioeconomic harms previously mentioned, these babies are very rarely exposed to just one medication, or just one class of medica­tions. The dramatically elevated risk of neonatal adverse events severe enough to prompt transfer to a NICU occurs in the context of polypharmacy (Sadowski etal.
2013). This is a harm that can be greatly curtailed by sensible, sparing prescribing
of only those medications (such as antipsychotics) which are required to maintain a stable mental state. The high rates of transient adverse outcomes at delivery for these babies also suggest that babies of women prescribed psychotropics in preg­nancy should birth in a centre with access to neonatal resuscitation and intensive care support (Habermann etal. 2013).
There is a positive note in this discussion; that neurodevelopmental studies, lim­ited though they are at this stage, suggest that developmental delay noted in babies exposed to antipsychotics in pregnancy is unlikely to persist to 1year postpartum, despite high rates of psychiatric symptoms in women in the rst year after delivery (Kulkarni etal. 2014). In recent years, focus has been placed on specic conditions such as autism spectrum disorders and attention decit hyperactivity disorder. Several well-conducted studies using appropriate analytic techniques to manage the risks inherent in observational data have found, reassuringly, that treatment with antipsychotic medication in pregnancy does not appear to be associated with an increased risk of these specic conditions. However, women who have diagnoses of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, amongst other mental health diagnoses, may

223
have a genetic vulnerability to these conditions which they may then pass on to their children. This is clearly an avenue of ongoing future research as our understanding of these conditions matures.
In concert with a more sophisticated approach to modelling and analysis, bor­rowing approaches from other research elds such as health economics (high dimensional propensity scoring, for example, or machine learning techniques), sev­eral authors have called for a more sophisticated approach to research in psychotro­pics (Gentile 2010; Convertino etal. 2016; Habermann etal. 2013; Uguz 2019). It is probably not good enough to lump antipsychotic medications into two baskets and analyse harms associated with each; individual drugs within both novel and older antipsychotic groups have specic modes of action and associated risks which may be distinct, and whose specic harms may be masked by considering them all together. Whereas in the past few years aripiprazole was a focus of concern, now olanzapine appears to be associated with slightly more adverse outcomes for moth­ers and babies than previously appreciated.
The future of best practice care for women living with a major mental illness in pregnancy and the postpartum incorporates careful analysis of both large popula­tion-based data sets and granular review of symptoms and side effects in long-term follow-up studies of mother and baby pairs to inform prescribing practice. Consideration of a woman’s reproductive health should be integrated into her care throughout her life, and the care of mothers and babies in the context of maternal mental illness should be a trigger to provide enhanced social, emotional, economic and psychiatric support to avert harm and improve outcomes.
