A member asked:
Im on percocet and morphine er for pain conditions and just found out im pregnant. what are the risks associated with taking these medications?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neonatal abstinence: syndrome is the major pregnancy complication. Women taking opioids for pain are also passing it along to the fetus, and depending on a variety of factors, about 70% of babies born to moms on opioids will develop a withdrawal syndrome. If possible to taper the medication in your second trimester and use alternative pain management, that would be best. It is treatable in hospitals with expertise.
