Can the drugs you take if you have Cystic Fibrosis harm an unborn baby?

Leah asked:


My son’s fiancee has Cystic Fibrosis and she’s pregnant with their baby, she’s 21. I know she’s generally very weak/frail and takes a bunch of different medications, and nebulizers and digestive enzymes. I was just wondering if anyone is familar and knows if such medications could cause harm to an unborn baby? She’s also having a hard time keeping enough weight on.

    only her doctor can advise on that, they will change medication as needed
    the enzymes are safe but they may need to change certain antibiotics

    if she has not informed the hospital she must do immediately
    pregnancy can put extra strain on her heart and lungs especially if she is not too well to start with

    she will need to be monitored throughout the pregnancy

    i wish her well

    I have CF, and have asked those questions myself to my doctors. It just depends on what she is taking. Her CF doctors would be able to tell her what is safe and what isn’t. And if she’s taking anything that would not be seen as safe, there are usually alternatives that are safer that she could take during her pregnancy. I would suggest that she contact her doctors and discuss the situation.
