How pregnancy can affect medicines
- Pregnancy may change the way your body uses and responds to certain medicines.
- Changes in the medicine dose or additional monitoring may be necessary.
The use of any over-the-counter medicines, supplements, nonprescribed use of medicines or nicotine, cannabis, or other substances during pregnancy should be discussed with your healthcare professional.
