A University of California at San Diego study released February 9, 2006 has revealed a significant increase of very serious lung problems in newborns whose mothers took SRRIs after the 20th week of pregnancy. The lung problem, persistent pulmonary hypertension (PPH), is fatal soon after birth in 10 to 20 percent of cases.
