Abstract

Some medicines can harm a developing baby or beget a confinement or birth. Occasionally, not taking a certain drug can beget further problems for you or your baby than if you do take them. Generally, you shouldn’t take any OTC drug while pregnant unless it’s necessary. Gestation is a special physiological condition where medicine treatment presents a special concern because the physiology of gestation affects the pharmacokinetics of specifics used and certain specifics can reach the fetus and beget detriment. Total avoidance of pharmacological treatment in gestation isn’t possible and may be dangerous because some women enter gestation with medical conditions that bear ongoing and episodic treatment (e.g. asthma, epilepsy, and hypertension). Also during gestation new medical problems can develop and old bones can be aggravated (e.g. migraine, headache) taking pharmacological remedy. The fact that certain medicines given during gestation may prove dangerous to the future child is one of the classical problems in medical treatment.
