An Overview of Antiviral Treatments in Pregnancy

Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

Viral infections pose unique threats to pregnant persons and their infants. As the frequency of epidemics caused by novel pathogens increases, understanding pregnancy-specific considerations for antiviral treatments is critical for obstetric and nonobstetric providers alike. The use of pharmacologic therapeutics in pregnancy, which include antivirals, pathogen-specific antibodies, and vaccines, is limited due to the lack of purposeful, methodologic, pharmacometrics analyses in this special population. Our current understanding regarding dosing, safety, and efficacy stems from our knowledge of potential maternal or neonatal risks, observational data, and rarely clinical trials. In this review, we provide an overview on the use of antivirals during pregnancy.
