Patient's question:

Around 30 days of pregnancy, taking anti-motion sickness medication will have an impact on the fetus?

Doctor's answer:

The biggest concern during pregnancy is whether medications will have adverse effects on the fetus, even causing malformations. In fact, this is a process of weighing the pros and cons of medication use. Most drugs are not as dangerous as people imagine, but there are no medications that are absolutely safe for the fetus. Generally, as long as the right choices are made, it will not affect the health of the fetus. Generally speaking, the smaller the gestational age, the greater the likelihood of the fetus being affected by medication. In the early stages of pregnancy, especially before 8 weeks, it is the critical period for fetal organ differentiation and formation, and medication use has the greatest impact on the fetus at this time.
