Abstract

We thank Dr. Shaligram, author of this Letter to the Editor, for the interest in our recent article reporting time-dependent effects of prenatal exposure to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) on behavioral, emotional, and social development in offspring at age 5 years.¹ Dr. Shaligram raises interesting points of consideration for interpretation of the study results, and poses methodological questions about our window of exposure classification.².
