To those responsible for pushing Effexor on Christian and similar drugs on pregnant women across America, that may be “impossible” to prove. Only with that mindset of denial could someone justify pushing for the passage of federal legislation called “The MOTHERS Act,” which would increase the use of psychotropic drugs in pregnant and new mothers. In 2007 Delahunty approached her doctor about whether she should stop taking Effexor because she wanted one more baby. He told her, “Oh no, you and the baby will be fine. There are no studies that prove that the Effexor is even transferred to the baby in utero or in the breast milk.” “Milk-to-plasma ratios” greater than 1 indicate that a medication is present in higher concentrations in breast milk than in maternal serum. Effexor’s milk-to-plasma ratio has been observed at over 4.7 and is therefore not recommended for breastfeeding. Neonates cannot metabolize drugs as quickly as older babies or adults, they absorb more of the drug, and can have 10 to 30 times higher brain tissue concentrations than adults …

Oregons Senator Jeff Merkley added an amendment to the health care reform law that will give new mothers privacy and flexible break times to pump breastmilk once they return to work.
