No anti-anxiety medication is completely safe during pregnancy, but some are much safer than others. The least safe anti-anxiety medications during pregnancy are benzodiazepines, such as Xanax and Valium. They inhibit brain function by enhancing the potency of the neurotransmitter GABA. According to a study published in the November 2007 issue of Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety, benzodiazepines increase the risk of low birth weight, preterm birth and congenital malformations.
Pseudoephedrine and phenylephrine can both affect pregnancy and breastfeeding. These drugs are category C drugs, which means thereâs the possibility of birth defects. Women should avoid using them during the first trimester of pregnancy and possibly throughout pregnancy. These drugs also pass into a womanâs breast milk, though phenylephrine does so in smaller amounts. That means these drugs may have side effects in a child who is breastfed by someone who takes these drugs.
