Term
Factors affecting placental drug transfer and toxicity include
Definition
Physiochemical properties of drug
Amount of drug
Stage of pregnancy
Duration of exposure to drug

Most drugs move from maternal circulation to fetal circulation by simple diffusion across placenta
Term
Drug properties placental drug transfer
Definition
Lipid solubility
High lipid solubility  higher conc in placenta
Degree of ionization
Low ionzation  higher conc in placenta
Protein binding
Unbound drug  higher conc in placenta
Molecular weight
< 500 Da cross placenta easily
pH of maternal blood
Affects degree of ionization
Fetal pH is more acidic than maternal pH
Placental barrier
Placental & fetal metabolism
Term
Absorption in pregnancy
Definition
Nausea & vomiting
Delayed gastric emptying
Increased gastric pH
Term
Distribution in pregnancy
Definition
Maternal plasma volume increases
Body fat increases  increase in volume of distribution of fat-soluble drugs
Decreased maternal plasma albumin conc  increases volume of distribution of highly bound drugs
Term
Metabolism in pregnancy
Definition
High levels of estrogen and progesterone affect liver enzymes  increased accumulation of some drugs (increased excretion of others)
Term
Excretion in pregnancy
Definition
GFR increases  increased renal excretion
Excretion of unbound drugs increases
High levels of estrogen and progesterone affect liver enzymes  increased elimination of some drugs (increased accumulation of others)
Term
Factors affecting breast milk drug transfer and toxicity include
Definition
Most drugs transfer into milk by passive diffusion

Drug factors affecting transfer:
pKa of drug – high (basic pH)
Protein binding – low
Lipophilicity – high
Molecular weight – < 300 Da
Ionization – non-ionized

Half life of drug – longer
Maternal plasma levels – higher
Oral bioavailability
Many drugs simply not absorbed by infant’s GI tract
Nursing time
Term
Infant factors affecting drug concentration in milk
Definition
Age
Quantity of breast milk consumed
Nursing time
Term
Minimizing infant exposure
Definition
Avoid/delay products not medically necessary
Avoid extended/sustained release products
Administer once daily drugs just before infant’s longest sleep interval
Pump before taking drugs, saving fresh milk for later feedings
Use lowest effective dose for shortest duration possible
Choose an alternate route of administration
