Maternal Dipyrone Exposure and Risk of Major Congenital Malformations, Adverse Perinatal and Postnatal Outcomes: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Pain and fever are common in pregnancy. Dipyrone is widely used in Europe, Latin America, and parts of Asia, but is banned in other countries due to concerns about agranulocytosis. Evidence on its safety in pregnancy remains limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate whether maternal dipyrone use during the first‐ and third‐trimesters is ...
