How often are GPs in our practice discussing this with women of childbearing age who are on antidepressant medication? This review would be in three parts: 1) develop a questionnaire for doctors to explore their knowledge of antidepressant prescribing in women of childbearing age. 2) identify patients under 40 on a SSRI who may benefit from education about the need to discuss or switch their antidepressant if they were to get pregnant 3) identify a way of enabling a discussion with these women.</p><p>D:\Docs\2017-12-29\0ba7854eaf2e8de9fb65d62d5335457c.doc</p>
