How Should Medication Use Be Managed During Pregnancy?
Managing medication use during pregnancy requires a careful balance between benefits and risks:
Consult Healthcare Providers: Always discuss any medication use with a healthcare provider to understand potential risks and benefits. Non-Pharmacological Alternatives: Consider non-drug therapies such as lifestyle changes, dietary adjustments, or physical therapy when possible. Lowest Effective Dose: If medication is necessary, use the lowest effective dose to minimize potential risks. Regular Monitoring: Frequent monitoring of both maternal and fetal health can help detect any adverse effects early.
