Speak to your healthcare provider for more information.Health Canada has completed a safety review confirming that the use of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) starting from approximately 20 - 28 weeks of pregnancy may cause rare but serious kidney problem in an unborn baby. It can also lead to low levels of amniotic fluid and possible complications, such as impaired lung maturation and loss of joint movement in the newborn baby.With these new findings, Health Canada is advising that expecting mothers not use NSAIDs from approximately 20 to 28 weeks of pregnancy, unless advised to do so by their healthcare professional.
