Abstract

Expected drug effects may be enhanced or lessened in a pregnant woman, and the known side effects may become more likely. Possibly devastating effects on the fetus must be considered. In the care of a pregnant patient and her unborn, medications should be used only when absolutely necessary (Figure 2). Sound advice is the old medical adage, "Primum non nocere" - first do no harm.
