Pregnancy Use Issues With Muscle Relaxants

admin — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 15:35:05 +0000

Although formal studies involving pregnant women have not been conducted, skeletal muscle relaxants have not been shown to cause problems for pregnant women or their fetuses. Animal studies also have not indicated a link between skeletal muscle relaxants and birth defects. Nonetheless, women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant are advised to consult their physician before taking skeletal muscle relaxants.

Some muscle relaxants have been shown to pass into breast milk and cause symptoms such as drowsiness and upset stomach in nursing babies. As a result, women who are breastfeeding should not use these drugs without first obtaining a physician’s approval.

Ankylosing Spondylitis Risk Factors and Potential Causes

admin — Thu, 28 May 2009 14:52:18 +0000

The exact cause of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) remains unknown. However, genetics may be a factor, because a gene called HLA-B27 occurs in more than 90 percent of patients with the disease, according to the Arthritis Foundation. However, not everybody with HLA-B27 develops ankylosing spondylitis. People with HLA-B27 who have no relative with AS have only a 2 percent chance of developing the disease, whereas people with the gene who do have a parent or sibling with AS have a 20 percent chance of developing AS.

In 2007 two other gene variants were linked to AS: IL23R and ARTS1. People who have both of these and HLA-B27 may have a 25 percent chance of developing AS.

AS is believed to be an autoimmune disease, meaning that the patient’s immune system is hyperactive and mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues. Other examples of autoimmune diseases include rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease.

AS primarily affects boys and men between the ages of 16 and 35. It is less common in women, although it may develop during pregnancy. It is also normally less severe in women, making it harder to diagnose. AS is more common in American Indians than in other racial and ethnic groups, according to the American College of Rheumatology.

About 5 percent of cases develop in children. AS is more likely to appear in boys than girls. Symptoms in children usually begin in the hips, knees, heels or big toes before progressing to the spine.

DMARDs and Pregnancy Issues

admin — Wed, 20 May 2009 19:31:11 +0000

Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) may harm fetal development. Consequently, sexually active men and women using DMARDs should use effective means of contraception during every sexual encounter. In most cases, women who are pregnant or breastfeeding or who may become pregnant are advised not to take DMARDs.

In addition, it is important to note that some DMARDs may decrease the effect of birth control pills (oral contraceptives). Patients using these contraceptives are advised to ask their physician about alternate methods of birth control.

DMARDs are acceptable for children in certain circumstances, such as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis or organ transplantation, but children are monitored closely for possible side effects. Occasionally, lower doses of DMARDs may be required for elderly individuals. However, they generally are at no greater risk for side effects than younger adults.
