- For the first time, the FDA has approved a pill for women dealing with postpartum depression that's expected to be available after a 90-day review. Clinical trial data shows the drug, called zuranolone, eases depression in a few days, faster than other antidepressants.

This is great. Post-partum depression is absolutely crippling and lead to psychosis. THE MENTAL HEALTH OF MOTHERS MATTERS. This has not been taken seriously for TOO LONG.
Really curious why this problem is so much worse in modern times? Not enough medicine you think lolol
The more scientific progress and discovery that is made the sicker society becomes.
Its an allosteric modulator of the GABA receptor and any medicine that binds to or directly effects this receptor could lead to worse symptoms and withdrawal syndrome. These drugs help temporarily to stop your depression, pain or anxiety but they also take away the bodies natural ability to do these things making you dependant on them. Not a good thing for a someone who just gave birth.
This exactly, and postpartum depression is a hormonal issue anyways. What they're doing here is sick. Typical for these drug companies. If you have problems in your life, why not pop one of our mind altering psychotropics? That's what we call health in the west. I know this, as I am a victim to ssri's and gaba altering drugs being told lies as a child without a choice.
Thank you for saying women when it applies to women health issues
Thank goodness!!!
If it's good, i hope it helps. Postpartum ruins lives.
It's not good as postpartum is a hormonal issue and this drug alters the brain in unnatural ways like an ssri. This can result in drug dependencies and horrible side effects. Lower estrogenal levels have been shown cause this depressive state.
I don’t know about thisss
That condition can be pretty scary tho but I'd be hesitant too unless I felt it was a last result situation
The drug changes the chemistry of the brain like an ssri. It is unnecessary. Postpartum depression is a hormonal issue. Nothing good can come out of this.
You know, they are telling menopausal women not to take Estrogen. But it is necessary for bone and heart health. If they are promoting this pill, it may hurt you. Keep curious everyone.
Great try to fix everything with a pill. How much will be transferred to the child.....
@@GothicVioletVixenpost pardum is after birth…has nothing ti do with breastfeeding.
My thoughts exactly. I had postpartum depression and would never have considered taking a drug while breastfeeding. There is not enough evidence of any if the long term effects on the mother or certainly not the child.
Well hopefully women know to switch to formula during treatment... would be weird not to do that.
@@mamalovesthebeach437you clearly missed school, it has everything to do with the child, breastfeeding is a huge part of the baby’s brain development aswell so whatever the mother takes will be transferred to the child, these devils “claim” to have found a pill to help with postpartum, but they are just sneakily trying to ruin babies developments as they grow up
This pill has not been tested for women that a breatfeeding she said. So, how can it be approved. If you take this medication, you should not operate heavy machinery. But you can breastfeed even if it is not tested.
Sure They HAVE!!!😮
👏❤
Post Partum depression can last longer than 2 weeks. There has to be something better than a pill.
We don’t need a pill. We need better support systems, paid maternity leave, cheaper childcare.
My wife had crippling post partum depression and no matter how much support she had, it didn't stop the truama, suicide attempts and damage it caused to our family. You don't know how much something like this is needed to help parents get back on track....this is a good start to help.
Why not all of these things?
@@JayBareBear God bless you and your wife
Oh, I have an idea. Let's make a postpartum pill okay let's do it,1 year later okay we are finally done , but we are not sure it works Oh, we forgot about the breastfeeding mothers. Nah, it's fine. So stupid 🙄 Don't be coming for us mothers like that 😒
Good its about time ..
Does anyone trust the FDA anymore?!
People that aren't in cuIts I assume
@@petergriffiinbirdistheword so unless you believe governmental monopolized pharma is infallible, you're in a cult? You can't be serious.
No name to the wonder pill?
Zuranolone... they didn't say the name but it was displayed
@jessav5318 Thank you. Read up, and it's scary, to say the least.
Just use your placenta
😐 No
How? And what methods I am curious! I didn’t have the luxury of keeping mine, emergency c-section.
@@LaVenderlocxthey dry it and basically grind it up and put it into capsules you just swallow like a regular vitamin or whatever. But older times they used to cook and eat it like a steak , actually some woman still chose to so it that way. It's supposed to have many other benefits health wise the mother. Hope this helps.
Ion trust it
There’s a pill for everything now!! Hooray
I'm waiting for a pill for poor people 💊
@@petergriffiinbirdisthewordRIGHT
Psychotropics, everyone is doped.
