Briggs Drugs in Pregnancy and Lactation: A Reference Guide to Fetal and Neonatal Risk, 13th Edition gives clinicians fast, evidence-based guidance on medication use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Designed for obstetricians, primary care physicians, pharmacists, nurse practitioners, midwives, and other clinicians caring for pregnant or postpartum patients, this trusted reference lists more than 1,600 commonly prescribed drugs in a quick-reference A-to-Z format. Each drug monograph summarizes key information on pregnancy and breastfeeding recommendations, pharmacologic class, fetal risk, breastfeeding considerations, and updated references. The 13th edition has been fully reviewed and updated, with more than 350 new drugs and a streamlined format for faster point-of-care decision-making. Cross-referenced combination drugs, lists of drugs contraindicated during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and coverage of drugs that affect human development help clinicians evaluate fetal and neonatal risk and support safer prescribing and counseling decisions.

Now fully reviewed and updated from cover to cover, Briggs Drugs in Pregnancy and Lactation: A Reference Guide to Fetal and Neonatal Risk, 13th Edition, is an essential resource for ob/gyn physicians, primary care physicians, and other health care providers. Meticulously edited by Drs. Craig V. Towers, Alicia B. Forinash, and Carrie A. Brusseau, this highly regarded reference lists more than 1,600 of the most commonly prescribed drugs taken during pregnancy and lactation in a quick-reference, A-to-Z format. Detailed monographs provide the most essential information on possible effects on the mother, embryo, fetus, and nursing infant. A conscious effort has been made to reduce the overall size, so this edition uses a new format that provides a comprehensive summary for each drug.
