Abstract
Pregnancy was a major determinant of cessation of antipsychotics. Only 38% of women on atypical and 19% on typical antipsychotics were still prescribed the drug in the third trimester. Duration of prior treatment, maternal age as well as dose was significantly associated with continued treatment of antipsychotics in pregnancy.
