This drug sounds very good from the baby's point of view. >99% protein binding, and oral bioavailability of only 20%. MAO inhibitors, though, are difficult drugs and potentially dangerous for the mother. She could get a very bad reaction if she takes cheese. Sertraline (Zoloft) is not the only acceptable antidepressant. Most of the tricyclics are acceptable. Paroxetine (Paxil) is also quite good and buproprion (Zyban, Wellbutrin) is probably okay as well.
