Prescribing medicines use in pregnancy: A scoping review protocol

Parvin, Mst Irin (Principal Investigator) Mueller, Tanja (Principal Investigator) Kurdi, Amanj (Principal Investigator)

Medication use during pregnancy can have detrimental effects on the mother as well as the unborn child, which might be unknown. Studies on medicine use during pregnancy can provide valuable information about the medications that pregnant women most frequently use for the diseases they are prescribed and whether or or not using these medications could be harmful for the mother and/or the unborn child. Findings from this scoping review will provide an insight of the medicines used during pregnancy as well as a comprehensive summary of the current evidence on this topic.
