A member asked:

Which antihypertensive drugs that can cause cleft lip/palate if taken during pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

ACEi/ ARBs: Not sure there's a drug that links specifically to cleft lip but it is clear that you should avoid ACE Inhibitors and ARBs during pregnancy due to heart and kidney abnormalities that can occur.
