Managing common ambulatory
issues in the pregnant patient
Lee M. Stetzer, MD

Introduction
•
•
•
•
“placental barrier”
Thalidomide: 30% of exposed infants with
developmental defects
1962: FDA requires that medications are shown
to be safe and effective
Do rate and extent of transfer of medications
result in significant concentration in the fetus?
Source: 1
FDA Risk Categories
•
•
•
•
Rate medications as A, B, C, D, or X
Mandated for medications approved after
1980
Do not refer to breastfeeding risk
Danger of oversimplification
•
Risk may be modified by when or how long
medications are used
Source: 1
FDA Risk Categories
•
A: Controlled studies in women fail to
demonstrate a risk to the fetus in the first
trimester (and there is no evidence of risk
in later trimesters), and the possibility of
fetal harm seems remote.
FDA Risk Categories
•
B: Either animal-reproduction studies have
not demonstrated a fetal risk but there are
no controlled studies in pregnant women
or animal reproduction studies have
shown an adverse effect (other than
decrease in fertility) that was not
confirmed in controlled studies in women
in the first trimester (and there is no
evidence of risk in later trimesters).
FDA Risk Categories
•
C: Either studies in animals have revealed
adverse effects on the fetus (teratogenic
or embryocidal or other) and there are no
controlled studies in women or studies in
women and animals are not available.
Drugs should be given only if the potential
benefit justifies the potential risk to the
fetus.
FDA Risk Categories
•
D: There is positive evidence of human
fetal risk, but the benefits from use in
pregnant women may be acceptable
despite the risk (e.g., if the drug is needed
in a life-threatening situation or for a
serious disease for which safer drugs
cannot be used or are ineffective).
FDA Risk Categories
•
X: Studies in animals or human beings
have demonstrated fetal abnormalities or
there is evidence of fetal risk based on
human experience or both, and the risk of
the use of the drug in pregnant women
clearly outweighs any possible benefit.
The drug is contraindicated in women who
are or may become pregnant.
Cases:
Case 1:
23 year old G1P0 at 26 weeks EGA with
increasing nasal congestion that interferes with
sleep. She has similar symptoms every fall. No
fever, minimal facial pain or scratchy throat. She
has tried nasal saline and a cool mist vaporizer
in the bedroom without improvement. She has
put impermeable covers over her pillow and
mattress. She does not have any pets.
