Answer
Depixol (flupentixol dihydrochloride) should be avoided during pregnancy, especially the first and last trimesters, unless maternal benefit outweighs fetal risk, because safety is unestablished; third-trimester exposure risks neonatal extrapyramidal or withdrawal symptoms, so newborns should be monitored carefully.
