Effect of drugs on Pregnancy


Taking drugs during pregnancy also increases the chance of birth defects, premature babies, underweight babies, and stillborn births. Exposure to drugs such as marijuana -- also called weed, ganja, dope, or pot -- and alcohol before birth has been proven to cause behavior problems in early childhood.

Each of the following drugs or drug groups may cause birth defects in a developing fetus:




  • ACE(Angiotensin Converting Enzyme)Inhibitors.


  • Angiotensin II antagonist.


  • Isotretinoin (an acne drug)


  • Alcohol.


  • Cocaine.


  • High doses of vitamin A.


  • Lithium.


  • Male hormones.
