Clinically, many women require drug treatment during pregnancy due to chronic conditions such as epilepsy, diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), or asthma. To withhold drug treatment would be dangerous for both mother and baby. In addition, women are having babies at a later age, which can boost the number of women with chronic conditions. Accessible and understandable pregnancy and lactation information is important for women and their health care provider’s to assess risk versus benefit.
