The Importance of Medication Review During Pregnancy

Speciality: Obstetric Medicine

Description:

Welcome to our podcast. Today, let’s talk about why medication reviews are crucial during pregnancy. As your body changes, the way medicines work can also change, which may affect both your health and your baby’s development. Some medications that are safe before pregnancy may not be recommended now. That’s why it’s important to consult your doctor or pharmacist about every medicine, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements. A thorough medication review helps identify potential risks and ensures you’re only taking what’s truly necessary. Remember, never stop or start any medication on your own—always seek professional advice. By staying informed and proactive, you’re taking important steps to protect both you and your baby throughout pregnancy.
