  • Stress and other environmental and social factors can hinder attainment of continued drug abstinence and make drug relapse imminent.
  • When a mother takes antidepressants to treat her depression symptoms, the fetus shares the medication with the mother. When the baby is born and deprived of the drug, they are at risk for neonatal withdrawal syndrome.
