Drugs To Be Avoided During Pregnancy
Doctors typically tell women to avoid medications during pregnancy, if possible, particularly throughout the first three months.
This is because the medication can provide relief to the mother but can harm the growing foetus.
Sometimes you have to take medication to treat a health condition, like high blood pressure or asthma.

Before prescribing any medication, your physician may look at whether the possible danger of taking medication is higher compared to the possible danger of not treating your sickness.
If you and your infant would face worse issues without treatment, then your physician may recommend medication or recommend an over the counter one.
Some medications are taken for such a long time by a lot of women that doctors have an excellent idea of how safe they are.
Some antibiotics are safe for women who are pregnant, and a few are not. It may be hard to know whether a medication is safe for the infant. Most medicines are not studied in relation to women who are pregnant, because scientists worry about how a medicine may affect the child.
If you are planning a pregnancy, talk to your physician about any medicines that you are taking, including over the counter ones. This medication is very likely to cause birth defects. Your doctor might stop you from taking the medication or might change the medicine to another one.
Some medications which are not safe to be used in the first trimester can be safe for use in the later months of pregnancy. Some medications are known to increase the potential for birth defects or other issues. Sometimes quitting a medication has greater danger to the mother and the infant than continuing to take the medication.
