  • Title: [Antibiotics in pregnancy].
    Author: Leitich H.
    Journal: Ther Umsch; 2005 Jan; 62(1):13-6. PubMed ID: 15702701.
    Abstract:
    There are clear indications for antibiotic therapy in pregnancy and antibiotics are commonly prescribed in pregnancy. Potential fetal and maternal side-effects are known for several antibiotic substances, but not for all. In this article, the safety of the most common antibiotic substances will be reviewed, and potential risks are described in detail. Even though several antibiotics are contraindicated in pregnancy, a good choice of safe substances will be available for most indications.
