Introduction Pregnant females are commonly prescribed medications for both pregnancy and non-pregnancy related disease states (1). Pregnancy does not exclude the need for pharmacotherapy, and proper control over a disease-state is essential, in some cases, to preventing poor fetal outcomes and the health of the females. In the United States (US), over 50% of pregnant females take at least one medication, and the national average ranges from 3 to 5 medications per pregnant female (2).
