Anti-inflammatory medicines like aspirin can endanger the fetus.

FDA chief Marty Makary explained that acetaminophen is the only approved over-the-counter drug to treat high fevers in pregnancy that can damage a fetus, and that “the choice still belongs with parents.”

Quadros’s research has found that a specific autoantibody blocks the transport of folate from mother to fetus during pregnancy and when present after birth, the infant’s brain.

Senate Bill 323 is the second bill introduced in the state legislature this year that would classify a fetus as a human being from fertilization, effectively categorizing abortion as homicide.

The medical consensus is that it should only be used to battle high fevers that can be dangerous for both the mother and the developing fetus.
