Administering drugs to pregnant patients requires careful consideration due to potential effects on both the mother and the fetus. Key considerations include assessing teratogenic risks, recognizing pharmacokinetic changes during pregnancy, categorizing drugs based on safety, timing drug administration appropriately, evaluating maternal health, ensuring effective communication, establishing monitoring plans, and consulting specialists when needed. A personalized and informed approach is essential to balance the potential risks and benefits while prioritizing maternal and fetal well-being.
