Patient's question:
I found out I'm pregnant. My last period was on April 2nd, and I took medication on April 27th, specifically Pidotimod dispersible tablets, three boxes. This month, my period didn't come on the 2nd, and I discovered I'm pregnant. Could you please ask the doctor if taking this medication will affect the fetus? Can I still continue the pregnancy? I'm really torn up inside now.Doctor's answer:
In this case, there is some impact to consider, as it has a certain teratogenic effect. However, the impact should not be too significant. It is recommended to undergo prenatal examinations and closely monitor the fetal development. If necessary, a Down syndrome screening can be performed to rule out the possibility of fetal malformation or developmental abnormalities.
