Aspirin and pregnancy: what you need to knowLow dose on prescription, no self-medication

During pregnancy, aspirin should never be taken without medical advice. At a low dose, a doctor may prescribe it to some women, for example to reduce the risk of preeclampsia. At painkiller or anti-inflammatory doses it should be avoided, and it is contraindicated from the sixth month. Dr Najib Boudra, obstetrician gynecologist in Fes, can advise you.

Low-dose aspirin or aspirin for pain?

Low-dose aspirin acts mainly on blood clotting and circulation in the placenta. A doctor may prescribe it to women at high risk of preeclampsia, for example after preeclampsia in a previous pregnancy. Treatment usually starts early and stops on a date set by the doctor.

Aspirin at painkiller or anti-inflammatory doses is different. It should not be used for self-medication in pregnancy and is contraindicated from the sixth month, because it can affect the baby’s heart and kidneys. For pain or fever, ask your doctor what to take.

Precautions

Frequently asked questions

Your questions about aspirin in pregnancy

Can I take aspirin for a headache during pregnancy?

No, not without medical advice. Aspirin at painkiller doses should be avoided in pregnancy and is contraindicated from the sixth month. Ask your doctor what to use.

Why has my doctor prescribed aspirin?

At a low dose, aspirin may be prescribed to reduce the risk of some complications, such as preeclampsia, in women who are at risk. Your doctor explains why it is right for you.

When should low-dose aspirin be stopped?

On the date set by your doctor. Do not stop or continue the treatment on your own.
