Review

 "A welcome edition to an already thorough reference...succinct texts
such as this are invaluable and worthy of a spot on a bookshelf of any
health care practitioner who advises pregnant or lactating women."
- Myla Moretti, Motherisk Program, Toronto, Ontario, in CANADIAN JOURNAL OF HOSPITAL PHARMACY

"The best feature of this book is its thorough coverage of how medications
pass into breast milk and the way it takes into consideration the
differences posed by infant age and maturity. Lists of drug therapies
accompanied with recommendations regarding therapy choice and safe
alternatives, are especially helpful. The appendixes are a highlight of
this book, providing practitioners with a wealth of listed resources.
This book is highly recommended to all clinicians working in the areas
of obstetrics, pediatrics, and lactation. It offers more specific
recommendations regarding treatment options than a similar book, Hale's Medications and Mothers Milk,
12th edition (Hale Publishing, 2006)...[Schaefer] is a great addition
to the clinician's library. This second edition contains major revisions
with many sections completely rewritten, and the price is lower, making
the book available to a greater readership."
- DOODY ENTERPRISES, Inc.  

"The
book comes with a nifty accessibility enhancer, a laminated pocket card
with a table of risk/safety attributes of commonly used medications.
The availability of information in such a compact and pocket-friendly
form will be very popular with some clinicians...The contributors to
this book have done a very nice job...An important feature of Drugs
During Pregnancy and Lactation. Treatment options and risk assessment is
the inclusion of recommendations for most medications or groups of
medications. The recommendations are set forth in a shaded box for easy
visibility and will be appreciated by clinicians looking for clear
answers. This book has staying power, and I expect we will see
subsequent editions on a regular basis...the book will find an
appreciative audience."
- Anthony R. Scialli, M.D., Reproductive Toxicology Center, Bethesda, MD

"A user-friendly pocket guide that's been extensively revised throughout,
with content rewritten and adapted for an internal audience...includes a
removable quick reference card on the safety of most frequently used
drugs. The book contains new information on herbs, vitamins, and
supplement use during pregnancy and expanded chapters on antiepileptics,
psychopharmacological agents, disease modifying drugs, and cancer
therapy."
-CONTEMPORARY OB/GYN

"It is wonderful to have
another source to assess the risks for use of medications not only in
pregnancy but while breastfeeding."
--Sharon Voyer Lavigne, M.S, Connecticut Pregnancy Exposure Information Service

"Drugs
During Pregnancy and Lacation, Treatment Options and Risk Assessment,
Second Edition, is a well organized, concise, and comprehensive
reference guide assembled by internationally recognized experts in the
field - a valuable tool for clinicians."
--Christina D. Chambers,
Ph.D., M.P.H., Departments of Pediatrics and Family and Preventive
Medicine, University of California in San Diego
