Pregnancy-drug contraindications

MARIANN MEISTER FISHBEIN

A national database is currently available to pregnant women and their physicians who are concerned about harmful effects of exposure to therapeutic agents for treating diseases such as cancer and kidney disease, according to the Journal of the National Cancer Institute (Vol. 85, No. 4).

The database has records of 270 pregnancies in which mothers were exposed to therapeutic agents. Each case chronicles a pregnancy and the exposure to particular drugs or radiation, and other potential confounding factors.
