AB  - Drug  use  in  pregnancy  requires  special  considerations  since  medications  have  the  potential  to  affect  the  developing  fetus.  In  addition,  pregnancy  alters  pharmacokinetic  parameters  of  some  medications,  resulting  in  a  need  for  dosage  adjustment.  Drug  regimens  for  management  of  acute  and  chronic  disorders  in  pregnancy  should  be  tailored  to  optimize  the  health  of  the  mother  while  minimizing  risk  to  the  fetus.  After  delivery,  measures  should  be  taken  to  minimize  drug  exposure  to  the  breastfeeding  infant.  Pharmacists  can  play  a  key  role  in  maximizing  the  safe  and  effective  use  of  medications  during  pregnancy  and  lactation.
