Figure 2 Adherence patterns of four-group trajectories.

Notes: Estimated adherence trajectories (solid lines), observed group means at each month (dot symbols), and estimated percentages for each group: D-L, I-M, C-M, and C-H. Dashed lines are approximated 95% pointwise CIs on the estimated trajectories. Vertical red lines mark the start of the 6-month period prior to pregnancy (at month “–6”), the start of the pregnancy period (at month “0”), and the start of postnatal period (at month “+1”).
Abbreviations: C-H, Constant-High; C-M, Constant-Medium; D-L, Decreasing-Low; I-M, Increasing-Medium.

Figure S1 Timeline of questionnaires (MoBa) and of prescription records (NorPD).

Notes: MoBa Q1, completed in gestational week 17, covers medication use in early pregnancy. MoBa Q2 is a dietary questionnaire filled out around gestational week 22 and was not included in this study. MoBa Q3, completed in gestational week 30, covers medication use in mid pregnancy. MoBa Q4, completed 6 months after delivery, covers medication use in last part of pregnancy and during the first 6 months after delivery. We did not include the first 6 months after delivery covered by MoBa Q4 in our analysis.
