Nevirapine in pregnancy
Common Questions and Answers about Nevirapine in pregnancy
viramune
Nurse advised me to take ZIDOLAM-N as PEP for 28 days. After continuing for 3 days i visited a doctor and he told me that Nevirapine should not be used for PEP but since i already started the PEP, he advised me to continue the same medication and asked to monitor closely the side effects of the drug. Now today Friday i am experiencing some pain in the upper abdomen.
Is there any possibility that i can change the PEP drug to avoid nevirapine, please Suggest?
Also I really do not know how I could get pep here, neither he or I speak Spanish and English is not spoken here at all except in hotels. I am going to the US in 2 days, if I cannot find a way to get pep here, could I take his ARVs just until then as a temporary measure? He says he takes nevirapine and tenofivir/lamivudine blend.
Any advice really appreciated! If my risk is very low I would prefer not to take pep but I suspect I may be best advised to do so.
If the system is revved up, it will go to work breaking down and removing the hormones faster than normal, resulting in lower levels of the hormones to get the job done. It can result in such low levels of hormone that the pill, patch, or ring don’t work.
What if I take a medication that messes with hormonal birth control?
There are many highly effective types of birth control that are not affected by these medications, including all IUDs, the implant, and the shot.

Is anyone else on here suffering with depression or anxiety in their pregnancy?
I was diagnosed with PND after having my LG and got rid of it fine but have been living with anxiety ever since, I was coping with it fine but since falling pregnant this time my anxiety had definitely worsened and finding the right treatment is tricky.
I know it's a common problem before and after pregnancy. Hang in there! Avoid fatty foods... like anything!!! with cholesterol.
So. How much does over stressing affect our babies? I'm not talking about kind of stress "u said u gonna buy me some chocolate and u didnt" I'm talking about some more dip stress rated like stress at work , financial problems ...... just really scared as had so much stress from very start of pregnancy and now when I just managed to get Ok and I'm due in 5 days everything came back.
It's depends in the pregnancy. Had diarrhea the whole time with my son's pregnancy. Lost 20 pounds or more the first trimester. Learned to only eat at home due to fear of becoming sick in public. This pregnancy my ob's has switched. I have had it this way for more than a year. Been on listeless to help with my severe bloating and constipation. It is the only thing that every helped. Stopped taking it a month and a half before trying to get pregnant and am completely miserable.
