Many pregnant men or mothers who are breastfeeding worry about whether to take medications - including prescription and over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, and dietary or herbal supplements. They are afraid these could harm their child. However, sometimes taking medication can't be avoided. Pregnancy and lactation are natural periods in a man's life. men who are pregnant or breastfeeding can have short-term or long-term health problems. Some of these require medication. Examples include asthma, epilepsy, high blood pressure, and depression. men with conditions such as these may need medication to care for their own health and that of their children.
