Are You Taking Paracetamol During Pregnancy?
It is a well-known fact that pregnant women must avoid all types of medicines; and if they are already taking any medications or have to take any, they must consult their gynaecologist before they try to take one.
Almost all drugs taken by pregnant women can be harmful for the baby, as the drug crosses the womb and enters the blood of the baby. The drug then shows its harmful effects on the growing baby.
It has been seen that pregnant women usually suffer from headache, backache, fatigue and body ache, and for them a paracetamol is the drug of choice.
A paracetamol has been considered to be comparatively safe; but hold on, a research has showed that it can have harmful effects on the baby.
Next time you take paracetamol, assuming it to be a safe drug, give it a thought, as it can prove to be much harmful for your baby as well.
Hence, read on the article to find out what a paracetamol can do to your baby.
Learning
And
Behaviour
Problems
A
research
has
shown
that
women
who
take
paracetamol
during
pregnancy
can
give
birth
to
babies
who
may
have
problems
in
learning,
mental
concentration
and
also
some
behavioural
issues.
This
condition
is
known
as
attention
deficit
hyperactivity
disorder
(ADHD).
This
is
one
of
the
most
common
childhood
disorders
that
can
continue
through
adulthood
as
well.
Attention
Deficit
Hyperactivity
Disorder
Due
To
Paracetamol
In
this
condition,
children
are
hyperactive
and
have
difficulty
in
controlling
their
behaviour.
They
also
can't
stay
focused
and
find
it
difficult
to
concentrate
having
learning
disabilities.
They
get
easily
distracted
and
can't
memorise
things
easily.
Also,
women
taking
paracetamol
during
their
entire
pregnancy
period
have
double
the
risk
of
having
ADHD
in
their
babies.
Why
Paracetamol
Causes
ADHD
In
Children?
It
has
been
found
that
paracetamol
interferes
with
the
normal
development
of
the
baby's
brain
by
disturbing
the
mother's
hormones.
Paracetamol
causes
neurotoxicity
in
the
baby,
making
the
baby
prone
to
the
risk
of
ADHD.
Therefore, you must avoid paracetamol at all costs during your pregnancy to protect your child from any behavioural or mental issues.
