Learning Objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Give appropriate advice to a pregnant woman presenting with common symptoms of pregnancy

Very few trials have rigorously proven the safety of medications for use by pregnant women. However, most women experience symptoms (or feel unwell) during pregnancy. Many more have ongoing health needs that require medications to be continued despite theoretical risk.
