Maternal cariprazine exposure effects on lactating offspring sterol biosynthesis

Key Points

• Altered sterol biosynthesis occurs in offspring due to maternal cariprazine exposure, affecting growth and development.
• Key evidence indicates that lactating offspring exhibit notable changes in sterol production metrics after maternal exposure.
• The assessment involved measuring sterol levels in offspring following maternal cariprazine administration during lactation.
• These findings highlight the need for further research on the long-term developmental impacts of maternal medications on offspring.
