Pregnancy categories for commonly used drugs or special risks

[Here place table to define the pregnancy categories]

[Everything needs to be re-ordered to be alphabetical when possible and possible made into a table]

For those who are pregnant or plan on becoming pregnant, abusing recreation drugs is extremely discouraged. Regardless however, some may decide to abuse drugs anyway and so here is some basic information on pregnancy risks and categories of commonly abused drugs

[Add disclaimer that we are non medical professionals here]

[Need to have both brand and generic names, and place in same order. preferrably Generic name: Brand names]

[For now place a source for any information added directly below the information (create a seperate line below the info for the source). Absolutely no information without a source will be acceptable and any information without a source will be deleted. All sources must come from reputable sites and preferrably be peer reviewed. For now simply link to the site page url you used until all citations can be made into the proper format later on]


Alcohol


Stimulants

Amphetamine sulfate (Adderall): Pregnancy category C according to the FDA. Evidence has shown usage during pregnancy can cause premature birth, low birthweight, and withdrawal syndrome in the baby. This occurs more often in abuse of adderall. Recommendation is to consult with a physician if you are pregnant.

Caffeine

Cocaine

Crack (is it freebase cocaine? look into this)

Dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine): Pregnancy category C according to the FDA. Animal trials indicate teratogenic effects meaning that it affects the genes of the fetus causing congenital defects. One reported human case supports this theory
