The antidepressant medication Pristiq (desvenlafaxine) may increase your risk of having a baby with a birth defect if it is used during pregnancy.
Pristiq (desvenlafaxine) is an serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) antidepressant. It is a chemical cousin to Effexor (venlafaxine). Both are Pregnancy Category C medications, which means the FDA believes they could potentially cause a birth defect, but the risk is inconclusive.
