May be: Animal studies has not shown any risks during pregnancy or fetal congenital malformations, but human studies for the first trimester are not available. Buspar (buspirone) has not been found to cause any fetal or maternal human risk in the 2nd or 3rd trimester of pregnancy. So, it may be used during pregnancy.The gold standard is still to avoid any medications , if the potential risk outweighs the benefits.
