Description
Anders Hviid, Anna Laksafoss, Elisabeth O'Regan, Poul Videbech, and Ingrid Bech Svalgaard map how new mothers actually use psychiatric medicines in the year after birth. Their 2026 Danish study notes that earlier work counted infant exposure through breast milk. Such counts flattened the variety of real use. Continuing, starting, brief courses, and layered combinations all blur together in simple tallies.
Linked national registers covered births from 2012 to 2023. Of about 660,000 mother-child pairs, some 38,500 mothers filled at least one such prescription in the first postpartum year. Weekly use patterns were clustered by drug type, timing, and combination load. The study then describes breastfeeding behavior within each pattern, giving counselors a realistic picture of exposure.
