Medication Guidelines for Obstetrics and …
Medication Guidelines for Obstetrics and gynaecology First Edition Volume 1 Antimicrobial Prescribing Guidelines January 2017 2 Preface In Ireland, infection complicates about one in three pregnancies (Downey et al, personal communication). Some are diagnosed and treated in a hospital setting but as overnight bed stays shorten, many are managed in a community setting. The management of infection in the obstetric patient brings with it the same challenges as outside pregnancy, for example, the choice of the most appropriate antibiotic, drug allergies, optimisation of the route and dose of the drug prescribed, the development of antibiotic resistance and the financial cost. However, pregnancy poses its own specific challenges in the management of infection, for example, modulation of the maternal immune system, alterations in pharmacokinetics, the risk of teratogenesis, physiological changes as pregnancy advances, compatibility with breastfeeding.
