Summary
  • Convenient, reliable, and now in an up-to-date third edition, Handbook for Prescribing Medications During Pregnancy catalogues by generic and trade names widely available and frequently prescribed drugs with specific reference to their effects on pregnant women, fetuses, and the infants of breast-feeding mothers. This complete, pocket-sized resource provides all physicians with instant access to crucial clinical facts on when and which drugs can be prescribed safely for obstetric patients.
  • The Handbook clearly states when a drug is safe for use by pregnant patients, whether specific conditions affect its use, or whether the agent is the subject of ongoing controversy. Also noted are the effects of drugs prescribed for obstetrics patients with conditions such as diabetes, epilepsy, and heart disease. Social drugs - including tobacco, alcohol, and marijuana - are also covered in full.
