Blood pressure drugs raise birth defect fears; Study shows babies of women who use ACE inhibitors at higher risk of heart, brain trouble.

Some blood pressure drugs previously thought to be safe when taken early in pregnancy now appear to substantially raise the risk of major birth defects, doctors say.

Babies whose mothers took ACE inhibitors in their first trimester were more than twice as likely to be born with serious heart and brain problems as those not exposed to any pressure-lowering medicines, a large study in Tennessee found. Other types of blood pressure drugs did not raise the risk to babies.

 

What it means

The research raises troubling questions about the lack of safety data for many drugs prescribed to pregnant women.

Based on the findings, taking these drugs during early pregnancy "cannot be considered safe and should be avoided," lead researcher Dr. William Cooper, a Vanderbilt University pediatrician, said in today's New England Journal of Medicine.

Doctors said expectant mothers should not stop treatment, because uncontrolled high blood pressure can harm them and the fetus, but should immediately switch to other drugs. Women contemplating pregnancy were advised to ask their doctors about their options.

Who needs medication

  • About 8 percent of pregnant women develop high blood pressure, which can lead to a heart attack or stroke.

  • One national survey found the number of ACE inhibitor prescriptions given to women of childbearing age increased from 1.4 million in 1995 to 2.7 million in 2002, the latest data available.

    Earlier worries

    ACE inhibitors carry a strong Food and Drug Administration "black box" warning about their dangers in the later stages of pregnancy.

    The FDA said more research is needed before it considers changing the warning label to include the risks in the first trimester.
