maternity/pharm

[essarge]

I am getting ready to do my maternity rotation in school and the pharm end of it has me in a "tither"! Are there any resources out there that deal with pharmacology and maternity? I understand that allot of the drugs are used for their unlabeled/side effects, but I need a source to look them up from the maternity aspect. Any help would be greatly apprecicated!!

Thanks:)

Check out your college library or the local hospital to see if they have a maternal drug handbook and/or drugs and maternal lactation. this is the best source i can think of to rely upon. good luck!

Drugs In Pregnancy and Lactation is a good reference book. It has the classifications of all the drugs, and maternal/fetal implications as well.

Good luck!

Thanks! Found a website LWW.com that is lippincott. They have allot of books and I ordered some from them. They bill you so that is a plus since I need the books now, but also need to "pay later"!!
