As a pregnant woman at 23 weeks with an underactive thyroid and pregnancy-related diabetes, what are the potential side effects of taking Daxid 50 on my baby, do I need to continue this medication until I give birth, and will it affect my ability to breastfeed?

Daxid (sertraline) is one of the safest, most well-studied options during pregnancy. While there are minimal risks to your baby, keeping your mental health stable is crucial for a healthy pregnancy. You will likely need to continue it through birth to prevent relapse, but always consult your doctor first. Daxid is also highly compatible with breastfeeding, as only tiny amounts enter breast milk. Managing your thyroid and diabetes alongside this is very important, so please work closely with your healthcare team.
