Zoloft Heart Defect Articles

Baton Rouge, LA: Another Zoloft lawsuit has been filed alleging a baby exposed to the antidepressant was born with Zoloft heart birth defects. The lawsuit alleges that Pfizer, maker of Zoloft, knew about the risks associated with a so-called Zoloft pregnancy but did not adequately warn patients and doctors about that risk.

Chicago, IL: It's one thing for a parent of a child born with a Zoloft pregnancy defect to take a drug manufacturer to task for allegedly withholding information and marketing a product fraught with risk. It's quite another for the child of a mother prescribed the antidepressant Zoloft to approach the courts for help.

Detroit, MI: As more parents reportedly join a Zoloft lawsuit, alleging that infants exposed to the antidepressant prior to birth are at an increased risk of so-called Zoloft heart birth defects, a new study suggests a link between the use of Zoloft while pregnant and a risk of Zoloft side effects in infants.

St. Clair County, MI: A group of parents have sued the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer over the alleged Zoloft heart birth defects that they say their children have been suffering from, according to the St. Clair Record.

Washington, DC: Birth defects happen for a variety of reasons: genetic predisposition, fate, or worse—a preventable cause.

Detroit, MI: Multiple Zoloft lawsuits have reportedly been filed against the maker of the antidepressant, alleging Zoloft pregnancy led to children being born with birth defects. Those birth defects allegedly include Zoloft heart birth defects.

Akron, OH: A Zoloft lawsuit has been filed alleging an infant boy died from reported Zoloft side effects. The parents of the boy, who died shortly after he was born, allege he suffered Zoloft birth defects, which caused his death.

Washington, DC: If you want a healthy baby, government agencies in both Canada and the United States warn that you might want to quit taking Zoloft during pregnancy. Last year, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and its Canadian counterpart, Health Canada, both issued warnings about combining Zoloft and pregnancy.
