Basic topic - Medicines during pregnancy and breastfeeding

Description

Are you familiar with the situation where a pregnant customer asks for a medicine to relieve discomfort and you yourself feel unsure about what you can give her without risk? Most package inserts warn against the use of medicines during pregnancy and breastfeeding - or there is not enough experience to make a recommendation. This section is designed to give you confidence and competence in advising pregnant women. In addition to the basics of embryonic development, risks of developmental disorders and treatment of common pregnancy complaints, you will also learn about dealing with patients with chronic pre-existing conditions.

Join in and support pregnant women with heart and mind in counseling!
