4hw.org: cold is one of the common diseases of pregnant women, but because pregnant women are in a special period, they should be careful when taking medicine. The principle of many expectant mothers is to be able to carry the past without taking medicine, for fear that it is not good for the fetus, so can pregnant women take medicine for fever? What should pregnant women do for fever?
Over the years, the idea that drugs may cause teratogenesis has been deeply rooted, and many pregnant women are carrying the cold silently. The symptoms of sneezing and nasal congestion caused by mild cold need not be taken medicine, which will be relieved in a week or so, and have no impact on the fetus; however, if the pregnant woman continues to have a high fever, it will inevitably affect the health of the fetus.
Let's first understand the basic knowledge of women's body temperature. The basic body temperature of each female is not consistent in different menstrual cycles, and it needs to be measured for two menstrual cycles to determine the basic body temperature. Methods: put the thermometer on the head of the bed before going to bed every day, wake up in the morning without speaking, going to the toilet or sitting, put the thermometer under the tongue / armpit for 3 minutes, and continuously observe and record it. It can be seen that the basic body temperature of healthy women presents biphasic characteristics: from menstruation to one day before ovulation, it presents a low temperature period; from ovulation to one day before menstruation, the temperature rises by 0.5 ℃ ~ 1 ℃, and the high temperature period generally lasts for 14 days, if If you are not pregnant and your temperature suddenly drops, you will enter the next menstrual cycle; if you are pregnant at this time, your temperature will remain high until delivery. Therefore, the temperature of pregnant women generally does not exceed 38.5 ℃, and there is no runny nose and other symptoms, so they can not take medicine temporarily. Drink more mineral water, dip warm water in towel and wipe the body for observation; if the temperature is over 38.5 ℃, seek medical treatment, eliminate abnormal diseases such as influenza and rubella, and then the doctor will issue antipyretics to help cool down and prevent convulsion.
Almost all drugs can reach the fetus through the placenta. If the metabolism of drugs can not reach adults, it is easy to cause various adverse consequences. Pregnant women can not take drugs without authorization. At present, abcdx pregnancy drug grade is widely used in pregnancy drug evaluation system in the United States. Grade A (few drugs can reach placenta) and grade B drugs are relatively safe and can be used by pregnant women. Although there is no adverse reaction of fetus or newborn after long-term use of aspirin in small dose, aspirin in small dose can not play the role of antipyretic. When the dosage is increased to play the role of antipyretic, it often causes bleeding, premature closure of artery catheter, pulmonary hypertension, prolonged pregnancy, prolonged labor and so on. Therefore, the pregnancy grade of aspirin in early pregnancy is C, 28 weeks after pregnancy The pregnancy grade is D, which may lead to intracranial hemorrhage. Acetaminophen is a kind of antipyretic which can be used safely in every stage of pregnancy. It belongs to B grade, but it does not mean that it is safe to use it in large quantity and many times. Pregnant women should take the medicine according to the doctor's order, and should not add the quantity or times without authorization. Some single or compound Chinese medicine, lack of the above-mentioned standard clinical trial results confirmed that it can not be determined which grade, so pregnant women must not buy and take Chinese medicine jiebiao.
