Resumo: | A major concern brought on by bipolar patients of reproductive age is the possibility of the fetus exhibits a congenital malformation secondary to medications. Lithium has been touted in the 1980s as a powerful teratogen. A review of subsequent studies conducted in the 1990s estimated that the risk of cardiac malformations should be between 0.9% to 12.0%. This article reviews the data from these studies and highlights possible biases that may cast doubt on the accepted estimates today. It was concluded that considering the serious limitations of the retrospective, case control and prospective studies about this topic, lithium should not be considered an insignificant teratogen, and hence should be given very carefully in pregnancy. When there is exposure, it is advisable to perform a fetal and neonatal echocardiography to exclude the possibility of cardiac anomalies. Antipsychotics and lamotrigine seem to be possible alternatives for the treatment of bipolar disorder during pregnancy. |

Lithium has been touted in the 1980s as a powerful teratogen. A review of subsequent studies conducted in the 1990s estimated that the risk of cardiac malformations should be between 0.9% to 12.0%.

Uma revisão de estudos posteriores realizada nos anos 1990 estimou que o risco de malformações cardíacas era menor do que o relatado e deveria estar entre 0,9% a 12%. Este artigo revisa os dados destes estudos e assinala possíveis vieses que podem colocar em dúvida as estimativas aceitas na atualidade. Concluiu-se que, considerando as sérias limitações dos estudos retrospectivos, caso-controle e prospectivos sobre este tema, o potencialteratogênico do lítio não deve ser desprezado e, portanto, é uma medicação que deve ser prescrita com muito critério durante a gravidez. Quando houver a exposição, é aconselhável realizar uma ecocardiografia fetal e neonatal para excluir a possibilidade de anomalias cardíacas. Antipsicóticos e lamotrigina podem ser possíveis alternativas para o tratamento do transtorno bipolar durante a gravidez.Associação Brasileira de Psiquiatria2022-05-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-ReviewedRevisado por ParesAvaliado Pelos Paresapplication/pdfhttps://revistardp.org.br/revista/article/view/31910.25118/2763-9037.2013.v3.319Debates in Psychiatry; Vol. 3 No. 4 (2013); 24-28Debates em Psiquiatria; Vol. 3 Núm. 4 (2013); 24-28Debates em Psiquiatria; v. 3 n. 4 (2013); 24-282763-90372236-918Xreponame:Debates em Psiquiatria (Online)instname:Associação Brasileira de Psiquiatria (ABP)instacron:ABPporhttps://revistardp.org.br/revista/article/view/319/288https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCantilino , AmauryRennó Jr , JoelRibeiro, Hewdy LoboCavalsan, Juliana PiresRocha, Renan2023-07-28T12:00:10Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/319Revistahttps://revistardp.org.br/revista/oaiPUBhttps://revistardp.org.br/revista/oairdp@abp.org.br2763-90372236-918Xopendoar:2023-07-28T12:00:10Debates em Psiquiatria (Online) - Associação Brasileira de Psiquiatria (ABP)false |
