Title: Probable neonatal propoxyphene withdrawal: a case report. Author: Klein RB, Blatman S, Little GA. Journal: Pediatrics; 1975 Jun; 55(6):882-4. PubMed ID: 1134888.

We express concern about the wide use of propoxyphene and its proposed use in substitution programs for detoxifying and maintaining heroin addicts in view of the possibility of neonatal complications.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
